archery bear back from taxi
« on: March 26, 2015, 02:04:53 PM »
I was with my son when he killed this bear with his bow..  It was a pretty exciting adventure with him that day, so I decided to get it mounted for him.  He's very happy with it..  It's gonna hang in my house for awhile though..  ;)

Great looking bear!  The mount  turned out great.  Where did you get it mounted at?

Thanks for the comments..

This mount was done by Fidalgo Taxidermy in Anacortes.  I have a black bear rug that Garth did for me over twenty years ago and it still looks great.  He does nice work.

Thanks!  It was right at eleven months to complete.  Garth did a black bear rug for me over twenty years ago and it still hangs on my wall..
