‘Kentucky Afield’ episode with my deer hunt now online; eight-point buck mount now on my wall

My eight-point buck’s head has returned from the taxidermist (right) and my appearance in KET’s Kentucky Afield is now on YouTube (bottom, the money shot is at 9:20).
I was thrilled with how both came out. The European-style mount, which currently resides on a wall in my kitchen but will soon be relocated to the top of our staircase, looks rustic and arty on the restored barn wood.
