Finding a good taxi takes a lot of shopping aroundIMO.I had a nice buck mounted by a guy who was refered to me by a friend and for some reason I can't remember the friends name.

After I gave him all the measurments the mount came back half thesize it was suppose to be.[:@]The mount spent 4 years in the garage until I tore it a part and gave the form away.BTW whats the bird mount going to run you?I spent 625.00 last year on mine and like the way it turned out.(full strutt) Good luck with the taxi sounds like you got a good one.
P.S.Sorry for the hijack.
