    This is the one in the freezer I may do a European


    I wanted it to go on the other side of the tv to go with this one


    then there' this one it has a cool pocket in the rack but you can't see it from this side


    This was the heartbreaker. I watched this buck for 4 years. I let him walk the first 2 years, missed him the third year, and got him the 4th year. I paid a guy in full to mont him and the dude eventually took off with my money and deer which probably ended up in a dumpster


    I've got a few done as Europeans already then there's bears, squrrels, ducks, a ram, and fish

    Did you just use a piece of aluminum and bend/drill it to your liking?

    Sweet mount btw- even made an Outdoor magazine!

    It was just a piece of 1/8" x 2" steel. I cut it and broke it to mount to the bed rail and the bottom piece sits on the little ridge in the side of the bed above the cubby. The outdoor magazine was a joke thing a buddy ordered from Walmart photo place.
    Amazon had the big Quickfists as add on items for $7 normally 20

    That'll be solid.
    I have 2, or 4 quick fists I've been meaning to make mounts and get an axe, shovel and a smaller fire extinguisher back in the truck bed. I just need to find time for those projects

    and hey you can't blame me! That's a unique drop tine

    Axe and shovel mount made the same way. Fun, easy project.


    This buck was really cool he was aged at 9 years old and he weighed 200lbs field dressed. That's a biggun for around here. You can't see it in that pic very well but the first long tine on the opposite of the drop tine has a 4" split at the end curling back like a flame.

    Yeah I noticed a lil something somethin like that on his rack.

    Ah yeah I'm struggling if I actually need a shovel, I'm thinkin' I'll just get a military e-tool. Now sure what else I'd use the other quick fist for to mount there...?

    You'll wear yourself out with an E-tool I'd just get a decent shovel and axe. I need a bigger axe this one is too light.

    Moose our buddy’s wife shot with her bow in Randy’s backyard had one; first I’d ever seen in real life.

    She’s pretty tough. She and her husband are like younger siblings to Randy and I. Our three families hunt and fish together and split our harvests amongst us. Easier when you have plenty of hands and backs to do the work, especially when you’re talking moose. As you know, it’s fun right up to when the animal goes down, then the work begins. ;)

    I guess that's true, I need a decent shovel... I have one decent ($6) shovel but that's strictly a poop shovel!
    I used to have good stuff but I think I sold it with my 1st Gen, jesus it's still such a sore subject :pout:

    I think I need another 1st Gen to make the pain go away and let the wife drive the 2nd Gen instead of having her get a 4Runner eventually
