Is this possible? Interchangeable racks?
Would it be possible to mount a buck cape on a form, while somehow leaving the hide around the pedicals "loose" and an open seam split down the center of the skull cap (not glued down, just sewn shut) - so that you could cut the threadssometime later, andswap out one skull cap for another?
Say a guy would kill a 100" buck, and want it mounted. Then, he kills a 110" buck the next season, and doesn't want to pay for a second shoulder mount...
Instead of having to mount the whole thing over again, would it be possible to leavethe firsthead "open" to swap out the rack at a later time?
Obviously, you'd have to re-stitch the hide, and it wouldn't fit "perfect," but it could work for some people - especially on "borderline" wallhangers.
One would thinkthere's a market niche for this kind ofthing - especially guys who have racks laying around that they've always "wanted" to mount, or guys with demolished capes. They could just log on ebay and buy a universal shoulder mount - and pop the rack in at home.
Make sense?
