Bison (MNTaxidermy)
« on: March 23, 2011, 07:16:01 PM »
Finnsihed this Bison out last week.  Was waiting for the rain to quit so I could take pictures.  Not sure exactly how much this guy weighed.  I know that it took the 2nd largest form made.

That turned out real nice Michelle. Did you attach the horns like we had discussed or did you go a different route?

LOL @RCHER
 
Muleyhunter wasn't bad mounting it.  It was rolling that big head around on the floor trying to cape it out because it was to big to fit on my skinning table.  :o
