Nope, just the cape tanned. I am going to tackle tanning it myself. My hunting buddy thinks I am crazy. Wife would kill me if I had two mounts in one year. I caped it out up to the neck and cut the head off and just freeze it until I decide. Might cape it out tomorrow just incase I change my mind.
If I had the space, I think this would make a beautiful 3/4 shoulder mount or even full size. Money is tight now with possibility of number 2 coming around.
What is so wild is the fur is so soft, compared to a regular whitetail. When I saw it in the field I thought sure it was a great dane dog before sunup. I went back and forth on what to do. One, this is a first for me. But two, he was aweful small. He is a 18month old and rather small I thought. But I do enjoy looking at him.
