Bowsandhose Bull mount (By Charlies Taxidermy @ Travis!)
« on: July 02, 2009, 05:07:27 PM »
Well, we finally got to take some time and get Travis's bull mounted. We had a total of 25 hours into this bad boy. Talk about modifications. Everything had to be modified from the head to the shoulders! Oh what fun!! This was a very fun project and I feel I have payed my debt to him and his dad for inviting me into there "Hunting Camp" for one of the best hunting experiences I have ever had! Oh and also for helping me pack my bull out  :chuckle: Anyway, here his is up and drying. I wish we would have taken more pictures, but we were working our tails off. Huge Capes are a pain in the Butt but well worth the extra effort! He is a fresh mount and drying at this point, in about a month or so we will be doing the finish work on this critter!! Enjoy the pics everyone! And thanks for letting me partake in this mounting adventure with you Travis! I need dome more bear brats by the way, those were GOOD!!  :chuckle:
