    Were gutting the trophy room tonight so had to move all the mounts. Put the deer all packed into another room but I kinda like them all packed together like that. Next pic I snapped with a few of the camo dipped skulls mounts we had done. I really like those things.

    They aren't very expensive, I do the skinning myself then have them dipped.

    First I've seen of them. I'm not much of a hunter myself, but I do enjoy the season with all of my buddies cooking up fresh kills.

    Those are really cool camo skull mounts. Have never seen those before. Maybe the wife would allow another mount in the house if I show her those! Where do you have them done?

    There's a few different places that do them. A local one man show here does it and I had mine done through a bigger place through my buddies at Tenpoint, I only spent $30 each on getting them dipped. But I got a discount.

    It seems the process goes by the name hydro graphics and several others. The ones you had done look great.
