Antler mounts
« on: June 30, 2011, 02:54:34 PM »
I have an elk that I need to finish an antler mount on.  I want to know what type of material to use to cover the skull portion.  Any ideas?

Here are some pics of a deer mount that I did a few years back and used a tanned deer hide.

Leather.  You can order an antler kit I believe from several Taxidermy suppliers.  McKenzie Taxidermy Supply and VanDykes taxidermy Supply have them.  Reasurch might as well.
