I wouldn't have a problem with it. I got my biggest buck ever a few years ago. He had a large neck on him and a short wide nose for his size. I got the mount back and was instantly sick to my stomach. I just gave him the money and walked out with my poor interpretation of my buck. The mount's neck was as skinny as a doe and the nose looks fake it's so long. I really want to have it redone, but definitely by a different taxidermist. So I will have to use a different cape. I would prefer to use a cape from a deer that I shot, but I'd also like the buck to look they way it did when it was alive. The funny thing is he showed a lot of his previous work and it was great. Even saw some pics of the deer he mounted before they were mounted and they looked very close. My dad took a buck to this guy a year before and he did a great job.
