Excellent creativity on that mount Kelsey. The second photo really shows a jumping buck. Let me know if you need another rack to mount. I have a few pickups laying around.

nice mount i got my dads deer done to and the guy who mounted it messed it all up i mean it is on a doe cape and it was a 4 or 5 year old buck with a big rack now it is 1 to 1 1/2 narrower than it was when we got it back you cant fix that could you

Its a shame your taxidermist did that to an old buck. The only way that can be fixed and look accurate is to have the entire thing re-mounted. using the appropriate size buck cape, and a new form.

Most excellent!!

I really like the way that turned out. You must be very proud. I'm still trying to work up the nerve to try a 1/2 body mount someday. I just don't know how I am going to deal with getting the legs right especially hiding the seam all the way up the back of the legs so I always chicken out and resort back to a shoulder mount. Nice looking buck, good job on the mount I hope you are very pleased with the results.

I actually just put this deer on ebay . I just dont have room for all these mounts, and school is in just a few weeks. would be nice if this buck could pay for my books haha...:)

If you'd like to take a peek this is the link to the auction.
