My 2016 Mule Deer, Ugly or Awesome?

Recommended Posts

Just trying to get the pics up on this one, sorry not much time to write the story since I am heading out of the country. Shot this old dude at 648 yds my longest to date on big game. Cactus buck looked very old and his teeth were starting to fall out. Depending on who was counting the drop tine side had 10-11 points and took almost 2 hands to get around the base. Tried to take a few angles but a lot of the points are coming out the backside, 4x10 :lol:

 

So what do you think ugliest thing you have seen or awesome?

 

Too many critters on the wall so he will be a Euro mount which was killing me not to do the shoulder mount. <_<

Ha! I did not hesitate either. All the guys with me laughed and said I didn't seem to give it much thought. He gave us the slip on two other occasions, smart old deer.

 

Pic angle is bad for how big and fat this thing was. Steaks have been fantastic!

I gotta agree. A non typical, a typical and a cactus buck all shoulder mounted on one pedestal base would be a very cool and unique display!

Just as that old buck took its last breath, it probably thanked you for putting it out of its misery....lol.

Seriously, ugly or awesome....deer like that are unique and I say it'll be a cool Euro mount and definitely be a topic of conversation.

Congrats!!!!

Congrats on shooting this really unique buck!

I got these pics this summer. Pretty sure it's the same buck but he grew up some more over the last few months.
