PM sent....
Also....did you bring this up at time of pick up? Did the taxi have a response? Has he or she offered to say maybe redo it with another cape this fall?

Can you post a full frontal photo of the mount (as if you were proud)? I'm curious what it looks like as a whole. That sucks to anticipate for months then total disappointment at the end, not to mention wasted money.

Had a very similar experience with a Taxi years ago. Live and learn not all Taxi's are good or honest.
Who did the work so we know where not to go???

The first mount I ever did is 10 times better than that. That's just a terrible. Looks like another "taxidermist" that shouldn't be in the business.

Quality taxi is worth his/her weight in gold, gotta put a plug in for natures way! Give him a call and see if he can fix that up for you. He remounted a buck I had a garage taxi mount for me and Mike did a tremendous job on the remount and earned all my business after that!

Sorry about your mount man. Charlie does excellent work also. I'm going to have him fix my bull from 2011 when I've got a few extra bucks.

That is a great buck! Sorry that the mount doesn't represent just how nice he really is. Have you tried to talk to any of the taxi's on here to see if they could help? I agree that that the quality is poor and I wouldn't be happy either. Best of luck!

Man, that's the Joan Rivers of the deer world. Proportions, etc way off. Dang facelift...... Sorry man. Not claiming to be a taxidermist by any means, but my screw ups are my own and I certainly don't try to sell it to anyone. That's like every single mistake I have ever made all put together on one deer.
