The more I look at my mount the crapier it gets. Straight Arrow Taxidermy sux!
« on: February 17, 2010, 09:02:17 PM »
I was looking at it again and I noticed there was fishing line in the ears. You can see it just below my thumb in the pictures. Then I also noticed some clay looking stuff at the top inside of the ears. THE *censored* SCREWED THE EARS TO MY ANTLERS! :bash:  I got ahold of my fathers lawyer and had him send Jess Carr a letter telling him I was not happy with my mount and I would be going to the courthouse and going after him for everything he messed up on my deer mount and Elk european mount. Well today I got 2 checks in the mail from Jess Carr. They were post dated checks one for the 19th of feb. and the other for March 5th. He sent me back All $820.00 I gave him to mount my animals. I sure am pissed over what kind of work he did. We will see if the checks clear.  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( Look at all the pictures. Dont ever use JESS CARR of STRAIGHT ARROW TAXIDERMY. He lives in north bend.  >:( >:(

OK.  The ears were bad, the nose and mouth were bad, but (and maybe this is just my pet peeve) the eyes did it for me.  Dude should NOT be in business... :tdown:

I won't lie, those pictures are hard to look at.  I think I could do a better job and I have no clue what I am doing.

Hope those checks clear.  If they do I would contact one of our member taxi's and see if they can redo the mounts for you with a new cape.  I can't believe this guy was taking money for this kind of work.

Yeah, when (if) those checks clear, go take your buck to someone who knows what they are doing and have it redone.

Wow Huntergreg, sorry you had such a bad experience. About 10 years before I started doing taxidermy I had an antelope done buy a taxi in Lynnwood. I thought it was awesome when I got it back. Fast forward 10 years and the day I got back from taxidermy school I took one look at it and retired it to the closet. It looked horrible.

Anyway, if you choose to have it re-done let me know. You're only about 45 min. from me and I'll cut you a deal since from the sounds of it you've been thru hell. At least it looks like your buck has.

Greg,

Hope those checks clear for you, that is just bad juju all the way around. I know alot of you guys are talking about the eyes and the nose and the lips and yes I agree to all, I think the thing that sets me off the deepend is the idiot screwed the ears to the horns.

Hope it all works out well for you..
