the antlers where cut off cause at first thought, i couldnt afford to get the head mounted...so i said i guess it had to be a rack mount. then my mom said she would float me the money if i paid her back once i got the job. however while my uncles where drunk as can be they went out there with a saw cause aparently there drunkness didnt get the fact that i want to keep the head. taxidermist said that they believed she could put a head from a diferent deer on and put those antlers on it and no one know the difference
