I know what you mean, can't drill them :'(  I have been looking at the mountain mikes skulls, but there 100$. I'll break down and mount one soon. The fake deer skulls look real good once you pull the trigger and drill, so I'm sure the elk mount will be nice too.

I wish i could mount some up, but where in the hell would i put em? They take up enough space just laying there as sheds. :)

The adjustable metal ones are nice out of research.   I also got pegs so I could remove them and change them out if I wanted to have one form and several sets.   haven't dove into the project yet.  HELL I haven't mounted my NM bull yet let aone a set of sheds.

I have been making  lamps out of the smaller ones, and selling the large racks got so many the wife gets on my case so ya have to make some cash, oh and drilling them takes a litte figuring out but once you make a nice piece and sell it for cash its easyer.
