Couestracker Report post Posted November 25, 2014 I finally got my deer back from Dan Lee at Artist Touch Taxidermy in Dewey, Az. I got both these nice bucks on the same day, along with 2 javelina on another day on a hunting trip in Mexico. I entered the larger buck (124") and wrote a photo-essay about my adventure for the 2012 Coues Whitetail buck contest. Here's the link to the story: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/37747-my-mexico-double-double/ The buck won 1st place for a typical Mexico deer and I won 1st place for my photo-essay! I was able to choose a discounted full mount donated by Dan as one of my 1st place prizes, and since I already knew Dan, had him mount the deer for me. He did a fantastic job! He's also mounting 1 of the javelina for me also. Those are the 2 javelina skulls in the pedestal cabinet. Jay Williams from Diamond J Furniture in Prescott Valley made the lighted pedestal cabinet for me and found the juniper branch for the top. I am super happy to have it back and on display! Here's a couple of pictures of my "Double-double" mount. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lancetkenyon Report post Posted November 25, 2014 That is an amazing pair of bucks. I like the fact that they are quite different in character and shape. I would not have passed either of these bucks. Beautiful mount. Your room looks too empty, you need to add more of these trophies! Congrats. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
