Well folks I had to take my 2002 8 point mount into the taxidermist who worked on my deer. Over time the mouth had dropped open slightly. When I took it to him, he exaplained what had happend. When his apprentice worked on my mount he cut the lips too far back and over time with changes in humidity, the leather will stretch and shink, thus pulling on the foam and when it expands too far the foam will pop. Thus causing the mouth to drop open slightly. He said he will have it fixed by this weekend and give it a good cleaning as well. All this at no cost. I have embeded a picture of my mount with a red circle around the mouth so you can clearly see what happend.
