Too redneck or is there a better way?

[Glendon Mullins]

Redneck is the way, always

 

[Jmoore]

We did similar for my son a couple years back. We have a lot of scorpions so I sprayed with insecticide and let it sit for a couple weeks before putting it together. It turned out good for him.

Looks great.

Doesn't approach redneck.

I think it looks better than a wooden plaque. If you sealed the wood to bring out the color it might look even better.

To me wooden plaques...even more so the ones behind shoulder mounts look "redneck"...more trailer trash actually. Add a couple deer legs under for a gun rack and congratulations to you and your sister on the baby.

Here is a euro display I made...I change skulls ever now and then to change it up a bit...I currently have a different skull on top.

I have seen some similar to this and I thought about going this route.

What about a piece of barn wood.

I have seen them hung on barn wood or reclaimed wood and that looks pretty dang good also.

When my youngest bought a piece if property, one of the first chores was to raze a run down, unrepairable shack.
Low and behold, the purlin used to nail the tin to were full 1"×6"×20' with mill blade marks! I tried to salvage as much as possible, but it was so hard and dry, it was almost impossible to work with!

Wall mount
....or table mount.

This is my first attempt at a Euro mount.
A buddy loaned me his "Buck Bucket" that heats and holds the water to a specific temperature.

Redneck is the way to go! Threw this one together in about 10 minutes. Like said above, can always change it.

Cool table!
Made a "coffee table" out of a water trough that kinda "goes with"!

I like it, I did something similar with my son’s first deer. But then again, I’m probably pretty redneck lol.

You are hanging a deer skull in your house and you're worried about being too redneck?

Did you paint the antlers or were they that dark?

definitely not to redneck. looks good to me.

I also did some with driftwood, really like the way they look too.
This is one with a blacktail

Mine are

So I would like to display some euro muley deer heads in the living room. I was wanting to use a tree branch but almost think it's a little redneck now. Tree branch in pic is unfinished but would save me $ for diy. What do you all think? I've seen some mounts on the wall placed on driftwood and I almost think that looks better.

Mine are mounted like that on a gnarled old tree section that was behind my stand area where most of the deer on it were killed, now if you want redneck string some twinkle Christmas lights around the limb and skulls and a few neatly placed empty beer cans on a few tines and perhaps a slim Jim wrapper or two in a eye socket always screams West Virginia too me. That’s about as red neck as ya can get.

You can also find a nice piece of driftwood. It may give you a little more surface area to attach to. I dont think its too redneck!

 

[HeyDude11]

My neighbor has something similar is his house and i think it looks good

Now that looks cool! I'm also think of doing a double like that on a bigger piece of wood.
