I'm not opposed one bit to whacking a tasty little doe but mount it.....maybe for real life decoy but the cost.....sorry, don't see it happening. My first doe I did have the hide tanned and gave it to my dad as a gift but a mount....don't think you are going to see many.

Post by: gasman on July 17, 2011, 04:28:20 PM: I was planning on getting a doe mount from my daughters first deer, but it did not work ut the way I planned, so we had it European Mounted and looks pretty good.

The only doe mount i have seen was neck mount. Just the neck and head, no shoulder, but it looked cool 8)

Post by: 3nails on July 17, 2011, 05:19:28 PM: My uncle had a doe mounted in the same pose as a big buck and placed it slightly under and off to the side of the buck. Looked really cool. You must have a lot of money and wall space.

Post by: Alan K on July 17, 2011, 05:20:00 PM: Yeah, never seen a doe mounted aside from at Cabela's or similar stores myself. . . You might look at getting a nice euro mount done. :dunno:

Post by: Raul Duke on July 17, 2011, 05:36:43 PM: I also plan on getting my daughters first deer mounted. Probably will be a doe, but that's OK. I have seen it done. Also in a neck mount on full alert. The taxi had it in there home next to a buck.
I had never thought of getting one done, until I seen there together side by side on a wall.

GL on your hunt.

Title: Re: Doe Shoulder mounts lets see them
Post by: h2ofowlr on July 17, 2011, 07:44:39 PM: I have a second deer tag this year. A doe would be good eating. I have never mounted one as I typically only mount the big bucks I shoot. The smaller ones racks get thrown into a pile.

Post by: seth30 on July 17, 2011, 07:52:15 PM: where did you apply for your second tag at?

It's for Whidbey Is. It's a hair tag.

Michelle how much did that one run the client?
Title: Re: Doe Shoulder mounts lets see them
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on July 17, 2011, 08:27:27 PM: I did that mount about 6 years ago. Back then $400.

Now probably $625ish after tax because it is a wall Pedastal.

Post by: seth30 on July 17, 2011, 08:28:39 PM: Thanks, that sure is a pretty mount.
