Got a nice euro mount out this elk I killed with the rifle. I think I'm going to have to hang it in the garage, because our house isn't tall enough for him! I've never hung up anything this heavy before; I'd guess the whole thing weighs 30-40 pounds.
Thought about just putting a big screw hook in a stud, but that wouldn't seem very secure, and I'd be sick if this thing fell off the wall and shattered. I've seen videos of people putting a couple screws into the back of the skull and attaching a stout wire to it, but I don't really like the thought of putting more holes in the skull than it already has. Wondering how some of you do it. Any tips?
