This buck had a real pretty cape, I really like the long hairs around the antler Birs. Enjoy the pics.

Charlie nice mount. glad to see one with heavy hair around the bases. My brother is mounting my blacktail from this year and I had him use a cape off of a buck I got a few years back that had a bigger head and prettier cape however to make it work with this bigger set of horns with big bases the thick hair really covers the bases and I was worried it would look funny. Seeing this mount though is very similar so maybe some bucks just have that tall heavy hair up top unlike most bucks that the bases are all exposed? The way you are cranking out the mounts makes it seem like you have a spring hunt to go on?! nwhunter

Thanks guys.

Hey Scott, I forgot to mention that most of the bucks I have mounted do not have that long hair up over the bases, it usually gets cut off flusk when they are rubbing I suspect. I see those capes that have the long hairs as a bonus. I think they look cooler when mounted.

That is what I have always been told why some have long hair around the burr.  My buddy got a muley this year that has super long hair around the burr.

Nice work.

Just wondering,  general taxi questions----Do you guys have a preferance on deer to mount, ie. blackie vs mulie vs whitey?
and
Anything that makes one more challenging to mount than another or is a deer a deer?
Thanks

One of the most realistic mounts I've seen.  I'd SWEAR that thing was still alive, especially that last picture.  WOW!
