Title: Bobcat!
Post by: Pilot_Hunter on September 05, 2012, 11:25:08 PM: Hi all,
I just joined this forum. On Monday (Sept 3rd), I got my first bobcat and I took it with my bow! I live in the Tri-Cities but I'm frequently in the Yakima area also. I was wondering who you would suggest to go to, to get my bobcat mounted. I have done a little looking around and as for a budget I'd like it to be less than $900.

I was also wondering if anyone has pictures of their bobcat mounts etc?

Thanks for reading!

The face will make the mount, trust me on this.....
