Another Blacktail mount ready for the customer!
« on: July 25, 2008, 08:15:52 PM »
Here is a nice blacktail I just finished up for a customer, real simple mount . Basic semi sneak with some headwork done. Kept the detail light on this one, I was looking for a good soft look.

Nice looking mount! I like the rich chocolaty coloration of the antlers those blacktails sport.

Not to hijack the thread, but a question.... is it typical for blacktail deer to have small to almost none existent brow tines? Honest question as obviously we don't have the species in Texas! All the pictures and few examples I've seen out West seem to have rather small tines.  :dunno:

Depends on your definition of small. Three inch eyeguards are pretty good for blacktails, though I have seen larger. But then again, lots of BTs have only one or none at all. Definately not large like whitetails.

Very nice work.  They sure are a pretty deer.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Charlie, This is why you have my bull.  Thanks for taking this on.  Hopefully my down was enough to get what you need.  Thanks again,  Shawn :rockin:
