Wild Things in Big Lake Ryan Allie
He does all the mounts for Von Hansons in Monticello. He got nearly 350 to do this year.

Quite the folly. A friend texted Brandon on Saturday with a pic of his buck on the wall at the Deer Classic. My friends text simply said, "nice buck"...... Brandon didnt quite register the pic. Saturday night we met with a friend before the Lumberjacks hockey game in St Cloud, and my friend asked Brandon how the Deer Classic went... I was in the background waving and saying, SHUT UP. My friend(whom Sandbur knows... Eric) thought we went that day. Nope. We are going Sunday.
So Brandon, my wife and I go to the Deer Classic on Sunday about noon. We walk around casually and run into this guy from Monticello. I think his name is Brock... No, Brooks. He asks my son something to the effect of what he thought about his deer. I turned and winked HARD at Brock, and solidly said, "Oh, the taxidermist didnt get the mount done, it will be another 2 weeks." Brock says,,,, "Oh, you should find a new taxidermist next year." Crisis averted. LOLLLLLL. We go to the center isle where the mounts are displayed. Go up one side. Brandon is all locked in on the antlers and the mounts on display. We go around the corner, walk up the other side and funny enough, his mount is 2nd to last on the isle. Yep, he was suprised to say the least. It worked out great.
