Default Does anyone know how to do a European mount?

I just wondered if anyone on here has any info on how to do a European mount. I was thinking it could be something for some of the guys and gals to try out this time around.
Disclaimer: I'm not recommending that anyone try something new on there once in a life time 15 point 30" (inside of course) buck. But I thought if some of you get a decent or average deer you might want to try and do the white skull thing this time around. I personally love the way a well done European mount looks. I know you have done a little bit db any advice for the first time out for some one?

A buddy of mine bought a kit from Academy or Bass Pro, I cant remember. It comes with a white fiberglass skull and all you have to do is screw your antlers into it. He did one the other day and it looked very real.

Here is my first attempt at doing a Euro-mount. It's the buck I killed last year.

I think it was $20-$25, it was really pretty neat.

Cool. I thought they were like 30 or 40. I did see one I liked at Academy that had the Bone Collector Logo on it. I might just have to get one for the next time I actually get to go hunting. LOL
