Would like to see what others have taken.

I was going thru some old Kodak Photo cds the other day and came across this scanned image of an unusaul buck I killed on DIY hunt in NM in the 1980s. I was going to add it to my other mounted ones but wound up messing up the tanned cape because of improper storage. I think the horns are in a drawer somewhere in my workshop,

If you still have the horns it would be problem to mount it with a new cape from a different pronghorn if you wanted to.

Yeah, I know. It just wasn't a pressing matter. I also ruined the cape of a CA blactail buck and the hides of a huge mt. lion, blackbuck, two bears & a javelina that were all slated to be lifesize mounts.

Live & learn -- DO NOT store tanned hides in black plastic trash bags for a long time if they aren't in the freezer.

Ouch! Man that hurts!
Thats one of my worst nightmares as a taxidermist. I have around 12-14 freezers.

Tell me about it! :mad: And to top it off, I had the lion's head at a taxidermist for beetle cleaning. The business went belly up, so I got a wrapped frozen one returned to me. Months later when my freezer took a holiday, the head defrosted & I found out it wasn't the head from my lion but a much smaller one. I knew because mine had a missing molar; the small one had all the teeth.

This is my lion being embraced by Randy Epperson. The tanned hide measures just short of 9' from nose to tail tip.

All these pronghorn have me itching to hunt them bad, it always seems like I’m busy with hunts already during that time unfortunately. Maybe one year I will have to burn all my points in a bunch of states and go from one state to the next hunting goats !
 
Another one of those not so impressive from the front, but when it turns it’s head for a profile you are hurrying up to take the shot.
Congratulations on a nice buck.
