3 Generations

Last weekend I picked up my 2010 Colorado Mule Deer from my Taxidermist. I had always told myself I would get my first good 4x4 mounted, and this one was definitely good enough for me.

My dad and I also had the idea to get another mount done for my grandfather (mothers side). I never had the privilage of hunting with him, but he got my dad into hunting after my parents got married, and always told me stories of their trips. After he passed away my grandmother gave a set of antlers that he had kept from a hunt back in the late 70's. He had saved them because of the unique balls on the end of several of the points.

So now with my dad's deer from 2001 we have deer from 3 generations of hunters on the wall in our den, and all of the deer came from the same general area!

'Below is my dad's 28" wide 4x3 that rounds out the trio.

My great uncle also has this 166 net deer from the area as well.
