Got a call from the taxidermist yesterday afternoon. He finished up the mount from my muley. Haden't put a tape on him previously other than checking for width. He grossed 158 even.

Re: 2009 mule deer mount

Kind of wierd genetics in that area. A lof of the muleys right in that area stay as 3 points but get really good mass. about 30 % of the time you can find them with 4 plus brow tines, but they don't seem to get the mass or quite as much width. 2 years back I saw one that was obviously an older deer probably 26 wide, and about as high that was only a 2 point.
