Are you talking about 25"-26" tight under the chin? or over the swell?  If you are looking for tight under the chin good luck finding one on this site. 

Go ask on Taxidermy.net.

Be more specific where you are measuring your deer!

Are you trophymoose07? I was going to pull up that listing on Taxi.net for you and saw your post for that big tanned whitetail cape. DS Customs is a good guy to deal with too.
