After 3 years of contemplating what to do with my WA moose
« on: October 30, 2013, 06:45:00 AM »
I couldnt decide what to do with my moose from 2009, the standard mounts/forms just seemed boring to me and really didnt excite me to shoulder mount my moose...After searching and thinking about it a form caught my eye I asked my taxi can you order and do this..he said yes and got the form in...should be a cool mount!

That is the first moose form I have ever liked!  I may have to rethink just doing a euro mount when I shoot mine.   :tup:

It's an Ak/Youkon bull from a few years ago.  If I remember right it's a Shiras form so we, or I should sayTodd Peyser, had to do a lot of mods on the head...lengthen/widen/extend the jaw, nose, head and neck.

That's a great bull you've got, should look really impressive at eye level.

The nice thing about that form is you can tilt the head more to the side and give him that crazy eye'd - rut look.  Looks impressive when your looking at the mount at eye level.  Something a little different anyways.
