Post by: carpsniperg2 on May 07, 2010, 04:27:21 PM: looks good any idea on score i would say 75-78? good cutters good length
Title: Re: Antelope Shoulder Mount (MNTaxidermy)
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on May 07, 2010, 05:05:33 PM: Thanks Guys!

I believe it goes about 63 4/8". Not a monster but still a nice looking goat. Real symetrical. Only had 4/8 deductions. That is just a rough score I did a couple days ago.

Post by: TeacherMan on May 07, 2010, 05:14:34 PM: I cant wait to shoot something worth mounting again, you do such a good job. One of these days I would like to get one of my bucks remounted by a professional. Totally can see the difference.

Post by: jackelope on May 07, 2010, 05:23:00 PM: great looking mount...

I don't think he has the mass to score that high, Carp...
no pro though, thats for sure.
Title: Re: Antelope Shoulder Mount (MNTaxidermy)
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on May 07, 2010, 06:22:06 PM: Not sure carp. I have never scored an Antelope before. I went by the directions on the B&C site.

Post by: carpsniperg2 on May 07, 2010, 06:25:41 PM: yeah i i forgot how much mass adds up on those goats now that i look at mine he is a bit thin but good every were else.
Title: Re: Antelope Shoulder Mount (MNTaxidermy)
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on May 08, 2010, 09:38:53 AM: The horn length on this guy is 12 7/8 and 12 5/8.

Sorry, struck out AGAIN. Oh well, at least we'll have 2 points going into next year. I'll draw 480 one of these years... Right now we are debating on whether to burn our 2 points on the 700 units, or if 2 points will be enough to draw 480. We have private land and a local guy that can show us around 480, but we're getting tired of sitting out year after year waiting to get drawn for it...

Between Ranger and I we have ten tags for Wyoming. Let me know if you want me to save you a couple of doe capes. You are not getting my buck cape.

Joe

Post by: Michelle_Nelson on August 07, 2010, 08:41:48 AM: I havn't decided yet if I want you to bring me a Doe Cape yet. May be a good thing to have for a competition or a display with a buck antelope.

Post by: HardCorpsHuntr on August 07, 2010, 08:49:08 AM: Beautiful job Michelle. My favorite shoulder mounts are of antelope and elk, I like it when the mane of the speed-goat is accentuated on a hard head turn.
