Fresh Elk mount from Charlies Taxidermy (Bucklucky)
« on: November 26, 2008, 09:47:38 PM »
Here is a 296 Muzzleloader bull from last december I just sent out the door last week. The cape was short so I used a research form and I had just enough to staple to the back!  I almost had to cut the head off and tip it down a bit for the antlers to clear but I didnt have too. I got the origional measurements to work just fine , had a half inch to spare! Enjoy the pics!

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Its a secret  :chuckle:

Ya its the research form with some major overhaul done to the head as usual! Those are great forms for capes that get the brisket cut out of them!!
