Ethan Givan Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Here he is, my first bobcat ever. I trapped him back in December. I think the taxidermist did an excellent job. What ya think? :void(0)'> :void(0)'> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntinsonovagun Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Nose looks a little too pink, but looks pretty good other than that! Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted July 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Nose looks a little too pink, but looks pretty good other than that! Congrats! Yeah it is a little pink. It looks more pink in the pics than it does in person though. It would look perfect if it was a touch more orange. I can live with that though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Wow! That is an awesome looking cat ya' got there, Ethan! I'd like to get a mink mounted some day. Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted July 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 I'd like to get a mink mounted some day. I would like to get lots of stuff mounted, but we already have 5 mounts in there and Im running out of room!! I really want to get a full body coyote done though, and a nice buck if I ever kill one worthy of the wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 That looks awesome. I'd think the taxidermist would touch up the nose if you brought it back to him or her. I like the mount though. It's my goal to someday get one with a bow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 That looks awesome. I'd think the taxidermist would touch up the nose if you brought it back to him or her. I like the mount though. It's my goal to someday get one with a bow. Im sure he would. He is a great guy, and he really worked with me on getting this mount the way I wanted. The form for this mount actually had a base like a fake rock or something. I didnt want the base because it was another $100 extra and I had a certian spot picked out for him in the house already. This was the only form however that would fit my cat and have him laying to the right, which I wanted. So my taxidermist ordered the form and base and just used the form off of it. He didnt charge me any extra, despite having a base with no form to go with it at his shop now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkneck Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Ethan, it's an awesome looking mount. Not to harp on the nose, but actually was the first thing I noticed when looking at the pic. I little retouch on it and it would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to harp on the nose, but actually was the first thing I noticed when looking at the pic. I little retouch on it and it would be perfect. I agree that it needs to be more orange and less pink. Like I said before it looks a little brighter in the pics because of the flash on the camera I think. Should I take it to the guy who did it for me?? He is nice guy and a good taxidermest and I hate to make him think he did a bad job or that I dont like it, because I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
