Idaho Lifesize Cougar
« on: March 22, 2025, 05:28:54 PM »
Here is a my 2024 Idaho Cougar mount done by Phil Soucy. I was fortunate enough to draw an Idaho tag and after finding a big Tom made the drive to Libby, MT. Tejay does all the rest of my stuff but I had always wanted Phil to mount a big cat for me. He knocked it out of the park.

That looks amazing Jason. He really brings cats back to life. Did Tejay do the bear?

Dewey Wildlife Studios out of Cody Wyoming did that bear.

Awesome mount! Note to self: buy house with tall ceilings. Though I'd be likely to piss my britches getting a glass of water in the middle of the night.

Link to the original hunt story/video for anyone that's interested. Definitely watching the video tonight!

Incredible taxidermy work.  And a beautiful cat.   :tup:

Awesome cat and mount.  He has my Utah cat right now. Can't wait to get it back. How long did ours take to get back?
