Well I got my mount back from the taxi about a week ago. It looks decent, but I doubt I'll ever send anything back to him again. The reason I won't send stuff back to him is because he was rather rough with the skull...I can see a couple places where the bone is scratched from him prying on it to get the hide off. Also the big reason that he won't be getting anything from me again is because as he was prying, he went and chipped part of the antler base...not a huge chunk mind you, but still the fact that he was rough with it makes me kinda mad. Other than those things I am happy with te mount, especially because it was my first buck and my first deer with the bow.
Ohh one other thought...I was looking at the mount and decided that I needed to include some part of my arrow on it so it would signify that i harvested it with a bow and arrow. That is why I put the broadhead on the plaque. So without me blabbering any longer...here it is...
