Finally had a chance to sit down and read your story Ric. I've met a lot of great people from the forums over the years, but very few have the passion for the sport that you and Ron possess. You truly are a gifted hunter and this buck was just another in a long line of great deer you've got the upper hand on over the years. Hell of a great buck and I'm couldn't imagine a better person to reap the rewards than you my friend!

Just giving an update on Characters mount. Stacey dropped off his buck Redemption today and said Derry finished up on Character today and that I can pick him up anytime. I'll have to wait till next Tuesday when I'm going through Zanesville on my way to my moms for Thanksgiving. Stacey took a few pics and sent them TOO me and I'm very pleased on how he turned out. I'm so glad I went with this pose! I will post more pics once I get him home on the wall over the fireplace but I thought I'd share these early pics for now.

A huge thanks to Derry for doing a great job on him and to Stacey for taking the time to take these pics and sending them to me!

He looks awesome, Ric! Derry did a great job. Coincidentally, I picked the exact same pose for my buck this year. I don't have one with that pose, so it seemed as good a choice as any. I really like the way your's turned out!
