A64D Semi-Sneek Head Downit is a McKenzie form. They are awsome. I had a picture posted butI will post it again.

DDs deer isnt a head up, its a standard head pose. Its a 6500 series from McKenzie, a semi sneak pose. The 64d that Michelle mentioned also has a counterpart, a 64u, which is a semi sneak, head up, as though its testing the wind, unlike the 64d that looks almost like a defensive posture.

You have many choices, uprights, semiuprights, semisneaks and sneaks. Thats head/neck high all the way to head/neck low. Most taxidermists you go to can help you with your choices. So can DD, he mounts every deer he kills, lol.
