Default Antler Mounting Suggestions

Does anyone know who sells a quality, professional looking antler mounting kit? Most of the ones I've seen, like those that Cabela's sells, are pretty cheesey looking. The only decent ones I have found to date are at Vandykes taxidermy website.

Thanks for your help.

have you ever thought about custom making your own mount and plaque? i did a couple like this and i actually like them better than the ones on the market.

check out the new field and stream. They have a good idea for mounting some of your antlers and its cheap. I have the store bought ones your talking about and I may change them to the style that is in the article.

Van Dykes sells a whitetail replica euro scull, looks as if you can mount the antlers right to this. Since I have a small eight point with just the cap/antlers. I was thinking about trying this, just haven't got around to it yet.
