I would definitely agree with you. Somepeople on here don't see it that way. Or should I say one guy on here doesn't. My taxidermist already said he has a cape for me if I wish to use it.
How much is a cape to get a mount done?
I got a 13 pt last year and it killed me to know that it's likely the biggest deer if not one of the biggest I'll get in my lifetime and since I'm in school, I couldn't afford to get a mount made. Eventually I want to get a cape and have him mounted, just wondering how much it will run me.
He would have made a cool mount too, thick brow hair of an almost red color. I'd love to find a cape from an older deer since the rack has some broken points and I think an older cape would add to the overall character, but I'll be thrilled to have it mounted regardless!
Here's what he looked like alive:
And on my med student budget ($10 for a saw and $12 for a mounting kit at Scheel's) here's what I have hanging above my desk in my office:
