Here are some deer mounts from my parents farm (Southwest MI). They were killed by "the guy" who lives at the front of the property. He has 10 mounts total. Some are very small, some are OK and some are big. He likes to get his bucks mounted. He is the only guy who has legally hunted the property for 30+ years. I will get my turn too.

The first two deer were taken one day apart. One by him and one by his brother.

This deer was the ninth largest taken in all of Michigan that year. It went 168. It is also the ninth largest ever taken in the county, that was measured. This deer was 6 1/2 years old per him.

He's been a good stuart to that land for the amount of time I've been alive. He watches out for trespassers and the like. I'm not going to piss in his corn flakes. I'm going to turkey hunt at the end of the month and if he asks me to deer hunt with him then I would. I have every right to that land, but I'm going to let the older fellow have it for now. It is his life's passion. Maybe one day, the land will be mine.
