What a cool looking animal! Those antlers are such an interesting combination between animals with which I'm more familiar, and the colors and spots on the hide are beautiful.

Did you have to travel to India to find one?

I really would like to do a hunt for these. Are they common in the area just north of Austin?

Lots of places to find them in Texas, though be prepared to pay to hunt. Be careful with booking with Outfitters here, the costs will often take all the fun out of it. PM if you want an outfitter recommendation.

Nice buck. Looks to be about 30". What part of the Hill Country?

Man that's a cool looking animal. I would do a euro skull and make a rug out of that awesome spotted Hide!
