RE: To mount, or not to mount?
Too expensive? Do you know how much time and detail a "True" taxidermist puts into his mounts?
The one reason I don't do it is b/c mine would be way too "personal". I would spend way too much time and detail in them that would eat up all my profits.
(((IMO)))
This is what I don't get when it comes to the people who say its too expensive. You pay hunderds if not thousands of dollars a year to hunt. This money goes towards the hopes of getting a buck of that caliber. Then when you finally do get one. You don't mount it? Come on. Whats a few hundred dollars to finish up the "journey"?
