I finally got back my 2005 buck from FRED LUCAS. When I first killed this buck I called Fred and he said he didn't take new customers. Well after 15 minutes of talking with him and letting him know money and time weren't important he agreed to mount him for me. He told me not to bug him and he would be done in 2-3 years. Well 4 years and 3 months later he is done. All I can say is he was definitely worth the wait. UNBELEIVABLE!
I have heard FRED LUCAS described as a muesem mounter. His deer is definitely Muesem quality. He said this deer was either the 2nd or 3rd biggest bodied deer he had ever mounted.
I had hunted this deer for 3 years before taking him. I have 3 years worth of pictures of him and 5 of his sheds. One of these days I will have his sheds mounted just like him only turned the opposite way. With a quality mouint like this its no wonder FRED LUCAS has mounted aniimals for some huge names in the hunting world, like Gene and Barry Wensel just to name a few. THANKS FRED
