DIY Euro Skull fence post display now completed.

I haven't been on the internet as much the last few days. I've been taking my son out practicing with his rifle to make sure he will be confident with his first rifle hunt. Plus I've been helping the neighbors with their properties winterizing...Plus Working on my property with winterizing too. I finally got my euro fence post skull done. I might change up the vegetation.

A question about that rack just to the left of your Skull/post mount, looks like some of the tips were broken off, was this a late season harvet, after the rut?

None are broken. the bottom left is my velvet buck I killed right before he was about to scrape the velvet off. The bone is hard and you might see loose velvet. I regret cutting the skull off. My back went out right in the middle of lifting him up on the hoist. I didn't want to deal with cleaning and simmering the skull so I did the shortcut and cut the skull off. Every time I look at it, it reminds of the time I half arsed it. LOL . The taxidermy shop sells a fake look alike reproduction skull and I'm gonna put the velvet antler on it sometime during winter.

The loose velvet would expain the blunt tips that I was refering to, thanks. I know what you mean about taking shortcuts with the mount prep, you will regret it.
