What is your shoulder mount criteria?
kentrek:
I most likely wont ever mount somthing that i wouldnt get a replica made of... its too enjoyable to pull stuff off the wall and hold on to them
Needless to say...still waiting for a replica quality animal :chuckle:

Probably won’t do anymore. I mounted several on my own, but now I probably have a pile of some most would cringe knowing mice might be g swing on them. :chuckle:

I grew up poor ,and not far off now.
All I've ever shot is a bunch of dink bucks. One buck I would of mounted, I was unable to complete the hunt,recover the buck.
Spent two hunting season looking for a shot opportunity at that buck.
Only thing I've ever taken to the taxidermist is a cougar rug.
My wife pretty much got me to sheetrock a wall ,that we hung it up on. So it was just more work. Looks good,she wasn't wrong.
But more work to say the least.
So all I got is euro and plaque mounts of dink bucks of the past.
Probably all I'll ever have.

Took me 25 years from the first deer until I shoulder mounted one so I totally understand! Cool to see everyone’s different views on it. Have always thought it would be cool to have a museum that collects taxidermy from people who inherit it. Makes me think I should have written accounts of the hunts that go with skulls/mounts so my future kids/grandkids can know the stories and the significance.

I've actually thought about adding coordinates to few of my dinks on the wall .
