First, let me say that I have been reading this forum for almost a year and it is a great source of information!

I shot a 10 point last November and it is my first mount. I dropped it off at a local taxidermist after a recommendation from a friend and checking out his work. He projected a finish date of July.

My question is...is it rude to call and check on the progress at this point or do I just continue to patiently wait?

Thanks for any advice!
