AZantlerhead Report post Posted August 5, 2009 Dad got this buck on Halloween while on horseback atop gobbler peak in Nutrioso. The rifle is a mauser in 762 or 765? Havent looked at it in awhile....He packed the buck home a few miles to our front door. And hung it on the front porch as you can see. I've stared at this pic allot. The house is still there, one of the first on the mesa to the north of Escudilla Mountain. He built it when he was 23 i think,whenever he got out of the marines anyway, grew his hair and used the Training on this buck.My Father, My Hero My friend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
