Well I got a story done for you guys about an elk hunt done under "who am I" and thought I would share my 2008 mule deer mount. I got it back in August.

[rosco]

[arffdog875]

elkkill2006, welcome aboard! I am over the picture shock now I am just down the road from you in clifton!

[elkkill2006]

arffdog875 My parents ,brother, and sister live in Clifton. My taxidermist is in Clifton, Precision Taxidermy at 3265 E Rd.

All of these great animals were killed on the westslope on public land. The elk in OTC units.

[arffdog875]

elkkill2006, Matt does all my animals too...he is awsome. Matt's shop is just around the corner from our house. How was your hunt?

[elkkill2006]

Elk hunting this year was the worst I have ever seen. I bought a voucher tag in the middle of second season for a buck and found a small 3 point to put in the freezer last Saturday.

I am heading out Friday to take my oldest son and daughter third season for two bucks. It should be really good.

[Outdooraddict]

I just can't get over how many antlers are in that room. You should probably have a warning sign requiring guests to wear safety glasses.

And you better hope nobody pushes someone in your house- do you have good insurance???

:D:D:D

[elkkill2006]

That is funny that you say that, I have had one accident in the house. My youngest boy fell on a set of small 4 point buck antlers that a buddy had brought over that night for me to panel mount. Luckily it only punctured the skin and he received a couple stitches and not his guts.:eek: I'll have to post some pics of the garage.

[arffdog875]

elkkill2006... Hope 3rd season goes better for you and your family than 2nd! I am hoping this weather pushes the elk down for 4th!!! My wife and myself have either sex tags and want to fill them this year!! Last 2 years has been too warm and too dry!

[elkkill2006]

arffdog875, It should be great I just got a call from my cousin and he is down where we are hunting right now as I am typing and has already seen four 4 points and a big 2 point (about 26" wide and very tall). I can't wait to get the kids on them!

[M. R. Byrd]

Awesome.

Unfortunately, it looks like I will not make it to Colorado this year.

[arffdog875]

elkkill2006... That sounds great! Hope you and your kids find them on Sat.!!! Hope you guys post lots of pictures! Sounds like the weather is going to clear out for a few days! Good luck!
