One thing to think about too, where are you putting him. Of course that would determine left/right pose as well as what you want him to look like.

Here's my buck from last year, I wanted to show his rack like you speaking off, mostly cause he shrunk...LOL I think you have that in mind from your explaination. This was done on a McKenzie. I've never herd of Coombs but they look good but it's all in the taxidermist artistry to really make the difference. McKenzie comes out with new ones every year, some really show off the muscles which I like. I truly have no preference in manufacturers of forms, I could care less what's under the hide as long as it looks alive when it's on my wall. The second one is a McKenzie form that really shows off muscles.





And of course I expressed my anger at the post office via our PM's.
