RE: Horrible mounts!!
if it looks that bad take it to another taxidermist. They can get a cape for the buck and remount it. I know this won't be the actuals deer's cape but it woul look alot nicer. From the sounds of it he measured the animal wrong and had to stretch the cape to get it to fit. I am planning on getting into taxidermy a bit now. I have sent away for a few books and will study up on it then attend a school for it. I don't plan on doing any work for anyone else until i am positive i can do a great job on it. I would feel so aweful if i screwed up somebodies trophy and made it look horrible. I don't mind doing a bad job on my stuff until i can master the skill but i wouldn't let anyone else give me something of any value to practice on till i am 100% confident.
