Well I killed my first black duck after 25+ years of duck hunting on thanksgiving. Well I have it my first attempt at mounting it myself. I went with a dead mount due to some of the damage it got from the shot. How do you guys like itimage_801.jpg

How much time do you think it took from start to finish?

Maybe 2 days of actual work but spread that out over 2 weeks and letting it set for another 2 weeks. It's very tedious work to get the details the way you like them but I'm satisfied with it. I'm just waiting for hunters haven to come critique it and put me to shame lol

Thanks, looks great to me, especially for your first time. If I'm lucky maybe I'll get something worth freezing soon to try this in the offseason.
