Great looking work as usual Bucklucky! :rockin:

Is it me, or does the head on that bear look really wide for a 200# bear?  Not that i can judge worth a crap, it just looks big in relation to the body.

Cant judge a bear by the size of his head :chuckle: I had to use a little bigger head for this mount but nothing out of the ordinary, so yeah I guess his head was probably a little bigger than normal for 200. It is probably a little decieving too because the hair isnt fluffed up like it usually is on a live bear. He has a really light coat so the hair wont fluff like a bear with a good hide. So really you are seeing the actual size of the bear with out the nice fluffy coat. Go look at the other lifesize I posted and you can compare a crappy hide to a good one. Makes a big differance. This bear only has about 2 inch long hair and really thin compared to a good bear with about 6 inch long hair and really full.

I see what youare saying on the size.  I went in the other room and looked at my shoulder mount.  It has really long hair making it look bigger.  I brushed it flat and it looks like yours.

Not knowcking your work in anyway!  I am hoping I can bring work to you and michelle both this year.  You guys are awesome.
