I’m going out on a limb here. Pedestal wall mount. And Tap told me about this cool hanger. It’s awesome, if you want to see a different angle just walk up and spin it.
We loaded the entire deer without gutting onto an ATV Quad and drove him out. They never want to gut in the hunting area as that is sure fire to draw wolves. We actually gutted at the trail head on the logging road and left the gut pile there. The guide said that discourages local stand site squatters as they think the only good buck has been taken.
When I think about everything that is a big Canadian whitetail that buck pretty much cones to mind. Absolute awesome buck. I would do a pedestal for sure without question.
The body size alone would look great, you may have to have trouble finding a form to fit without some custom work.
He'll certainly need a large form to mount even just the shoulder mount, but the good sculptors have them available. As pretty as that rack and deer are, you could take it one step farther and consider a floor pedestal mount. Google image search it:

Mort ... thanks, that is what I am thinking of. He has such great character and details that I think people would enjoy a closer view than up on the wall.
He was a beast ... when he was skinned, and amazing amount of fat on him. They only eat browse and lichen and grow to be that big. Lichen has high protein. We think that we need to constantly feed with corn & beans ... different perspective ...

The more I look at that beast the more I see how friggin awesome he is. WOW.
And what I love the most is the pic of you holding him. You’re actually holding him. Not 2 foot behind him reaching out and touching a beam like the pros do it.
Just a friggin great deer. I’m so happy you did this!

I post this here because we all want to show our success. It is important everyone feel proud when they get what they consider a great deer, as we all have different opportunities and limitations.
You are correct, unbelievable deer and I wish I could do more than pictures. His rack has some amazing character. Pictures do not do this guy justice.
You are so correct, and this is why I keep pinching myself ... I am blessed to have connected with this animal.
Thank you for your comments as I know you have been successful with some really big deer ...
I went back and looked at your pix again. The more I look at that buck, the more impressed I am with him. I don't care what his score is - just the LOOK of that rack is what's really cool!! It just looks like what I think of when I picture a smart, old, "ghost" of the north woods. Dark rack, odd points. The kind that haunt our daydreams - and nightmares. If I saw him in my scope - I'd have chills running up & down me before I pulled the trigger!! Helluva buck !!!
