Good work is gonna cost ya. I have 5 mounts, all by the same gentleman. He along with his boy have won numerous state and national awards for their work.

Their cost has slowly risen over the years to 350.00.

However, consider this. My brother had a mount done a long time ago by someone else. Now, the antlers have come loose on the form and you can actually physically move them under the hide some. Turned out to be a very poor job. There is also cracking in the putty used to build the eyes up.

I am more than willing to spend a little extra to preserve a memory that will last a lifetime. There is nothing better than looking at one of my mounts and reflecting back to the day I took that animal.
