625 for that work seems steep . you should have Elkstuffer take a look at it for you (all that's wild taxidermy ) in Natches.

An mature buck will have muscle tone year around, they aren't all skinny necks in September so I'm not sure I'd blame him on that part. A good taxi can take a form and alter it without anyone ever knowing, my taxi can do some amazing things

I had a 3x5 muley done by a west side taxidermist and the ears are the opposite of what we agreed on and the paperwork proved it. After a serious discussion and him apologizing I learned to live with it.
A couple years later, dumb me took a big muley buck in to him and this time took a few pics cut from magazines and we had a thorough discussion leaving no stone unturned. When he called and I got there to pic it up I had another deer with ears wrong according to our agreement.
As for getting it 're worked'? Good luck making a taxidermist do anything he doesn't want to do. I finally just told him where to go and also let hime know that he'd never get a referral from me and even worse if anyone asked. I've never gone back to him and have been very happy with a few other taxidermist since then.
Morale of the story: Find a taxidermist you can trust.

 :sry: Get a hold of Mike White @ Natures Way over here on the west side. Its a trip for you but he remounted a BT for another member that had it worse off than you and the results were outstanding! Very nice buck, it's not a hideous mount but not exactly the best either. Good luck!!
Shut up and Hunt!
