Finally got my 2013 bear back
« on: March 01, 2016, 08:24:24 AM »
2 1/2 years is a long time to wait but it turned out great. 6' square, big head, now I have to wait a little longer for the skull.

Really cool!  I love it!

All I can visualize is walking through the house barefoot in the dark and banging toes on those teeth - OWWWwww!

Who did the work for you?

I am still waiting for my 2012 bear and would be a little heated if I am still at the back of the line

10 Point Taxidermy in Marysville. A little slow but he does really good work. Since it's hard to make a good enough living to do it full time , he has a full time job and does this the rest of the time.

Approximately 5 or more years faster than some other taxidermists we know on here.  Looks great!

I am not opposed to golf, for I suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering deer.
