Packboard Mount-Mulie Giant (BlackRiver Taxidermy)
« on: August 02, 2017, 06:56:40 PM »
Guy came into the shop several months back and had a tremendous set of mule deer antlers. He wanted to have them mounted, but did not want another shoulder mount. He stated he wanted something "different and unique". While I know I am not the first one to do a 'packboard buck', I made the suggestion for this type of mount for his 37" wide monster. I had a spare cape and I buy these packboards when I can for these type of projects and had a few in the shop...Here's the finished product. Enjoy- Joel/BRT

That is awesome! One of the coolest mounts I have ever seen! I just inherited my grandpa's old wood pack board. I might have to hit you up this fall.
