RE: Mount times
Some of the turn around times depends on if a guy does it full time or part time. The guy I went to does awesome work but only does it part time. I went to him in the middle of gun season and I'm sure I was 30-40 in maybe more. I'm sure he has far more than that. He's part time and takes 8-9 months. in fact I still have my antlers waiting on him to get to mine.
A guy that does it full time can probably do many more. I think turn around time isn't the best thing to go by. When I was looking for a taxi I heard many people around here tell me a guy he knows gets them back to you in.... Nothing about how great the mount looked. With me I want a quality job. I looked at the guys work and realy liked it. So thats what impressed me.
Another friend of mine does his own. He said if you have a for you can literaly shoot it in the morning and hand it on the wall that night using dry-tan. His mounts look pretty good but I was told to steer away from dri-tan. He is helping me do last years doe myself so I'll see side by side how they last.
