Happy with the way it has turned out so far. Have a couple more ideas for the other walls since I ran out of wood. I like seeing them so thought I'd post up mine. Please add on if you have some man caves to share.

Thanks guys for the compliments. Bryan the wood is new though. Not all giants but a **** of a lot of time , money and memories encompassed in acquiring what is there. I would love to see some other displays if you guys would share em. Sticksender your trophy display has to be amazing with some of the big game I've seen you post.

Here is mine Cody.... since you've asked. I usually don't put stuff up like this.... but here goes. Had to use the "panoramic button" on my IPhone.... pics don't come through very well... so I took some close ups which help a bit.

These pics include animals from 4 states, and 8 counties I've hunted in. 22 Record Book entries that are recorded in Black Powder Book, P&Y, Hoosier Record Book, Ohio Record Book, and Boone.

Best five bucks Gross Scored after 60 days drying and measured by an Official Scorer were.... 181, 175, 172, 161 and 158.......... (4 of these 5 were taken with Bow)

Some of the more interesting mounts include...... 1st Wild Turkey ever checked in Kosciusko County when Turkey's were allowed to be hunted. The #1 8pt taken with a bow in Kosciusko County. The #5 Shotgun Non-Typical taken in Kosciusko County. The #3 Typical ever taken with a bow in the County I hunt in Ohio.

Here is what it looks like now....... may be a bit more cluttered after I finally hang it up someday... wink

Very cool Tim. Thanks for sharing. Congrats on the room. I know the amount of time and work that has to be put in for something like that. No small feat.

A lot of people wonder why I continue to get deer mounted but I've just enjoyed taxidermy works since I was tiny. I hope to add a few new species in the upcoming years.

I wish I had more time for the "taxi" part of this sport. It truly is an "art form". Glad you get to enjoy that part of it.....

And might I add........ if you have a "Man Cave"..."Trophy Room"....or whatever you call it.... would be nice to see. This thread ain't no contest, as we all have great pride in our accomplishments.

I know Brew has a Monster mounted on a pretty neat case. DEC must have cool Turkey and Deer man cave (at least that's what I imagine... cool ) .....and I know others that have some pretty neat man caves/trophy rooms. They are ALL cool.... cool

Thanks weed and George. Would love to see some more rooms. There is a good thread on archery talk with them if anyone else likes looking like me. Would still rather see some local ones though.

This is the wall in my brothers basement. These are some of the deer we have taken from our farm over the years. Between me my brother and my nephew. Two of our biggest (including my daughters buck) are still in my freezer, waiting to go to the taxidermist. Not any record book bucks. But not bad for a county that is usually in the bottom 5 of deer harvest numbers.

I never realized how hard it was to get a good picture of a wall in my house. Nothing huge but I'm very happy with how it looks for now. Hung this years head last night and already looking forward to adding another.
