EURO MOUNT

[mikejr112]

Good afternoon Coues Whitetail,

  We shot our first Elk today and just finished quartering and deboning. Not a trophy by any means, but a very respectful spike. 

I am looking for someone to do a basic Euro for us. I was told that there was a young man on here that did good Euro mounts. Not sure on his name or contact info. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. (602) 999-3180.

Contact rossislider here. (Send him a private message.)     His son, Draysen does them.  He's done two for me, and they both came-out amazing!

My daughter is doing them now and is also licensed through azgfd. Draysen does do good work as well.

Pics or it didn’t happen.

Here is our spike, meant to post a pic earlier but couldn’t get it to upload. Glassed him and another bull out about 1 mile away. After hiking some rough terrain we got a nice 400yd shot. Was a great experience. I grew up Whitetail hunting in illinois, so Western big game hunting was a big change. Lots of hiking. Luckily, a good friend of mine came along to teach us the ropes. Learned alot, made great memories, and put meat in the freezer. 

  I also forgot to mention that we live in the west valley, so we are hoping to find someone around here to do our mount. Thanks again guys!

We thought that he was a pretty unique animal. Very grateful to have had the opportunity to harvest him!

Well if you want a west side guy,  I think another member on here on the west side was doing them or maybe his son, maybe forepaw or beaton... vaguely remember. I'll see if I can look it up.. sorry if neither of you were it.

But Draysen does very good work and has great prices. Don't be afraid to drive for quality of work to try to safe a few a bucks.

What your rifle specs?

Congrats on the hunt! Definitely some really tall spikes. It’s funny that this thread just got started. I’m currently in the process of a DIY Euro Mount for my bull. If this doesn’t turn out too good, now I’ll know who to contact for the next one haha

  I wish I could make it out that way, looks like really awesome work. Unfortunately I have to stay close to the homestead today and tomorrow. 

  My rifle is a Bergara B14 Hunter with a Vortex Viper PST gen ii. It gets the job done, and my wife can shoot it very comfortably as well.

What ever you do, be sure to try to keep the head chilled well (on ice) until you get it to whoever is going to do the euro mount.  The taxidermist will appreciate that!

Nice those are pretty good guns from what I've seen.  So did a little digging and Beaton on here does euro skulls on the west side. Maybe pm him.

Thank you for the help, a member lined me up with a nice guy in New River. He does great work. I am excited to see how my head turns out! Thanks again.
