I got my Euro mount back
 

Well, I got a call from the taxidermist and he said my Euro mount was finished. I picked it up on Saturday and I've got to say that I am more than pleased with the results. He did a fantastic job.

Great looking mount.

Out of curiosity.....did you score this deer?

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

Very nice...congrats!

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

Jeff, yes we rough scored him after recovery at about 110". After mounting, which would include drying and everything he scores 107 7/16". I lost about 1/2" of spread in drying and we were probably generous in a couple of areas enjoying the moment.

No matter to me, I am most proud of that buck for a number of reasons.

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

Just curious.....that's all. He's "roughly" similar to the one I shot at the end of the '06 season.....though i think he's probably scoring better than mine.

Congrats, again. It's beautiful.

Might I ask what a mount like that cost ?

I am sure others might want to know also.

If you feel more comfortable reply with PM

Thanks

Does that say Butler County, Pa?

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

That's a very nice mount! Congrats!!

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

Nice mount.

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

Nice Mount!

It cost $250 which is a lot for a Euro mount, but the taxidermist is a very good guy and one of the best around so I don't mind paying extra. He also sends out the skull to a beetle farm where the flesh eating beetles clean it. This process is a little more expensive, but results in a very clean and polished skull. The pedastal plaque cost extra too (that was $100 itself).

No, it's Bucks County, PA.

Thanks for the compliments everyone, it really means a lot.

NICE MOUNT

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

I love it!

RE: I got my Euro mount back
 

I was just going to ask if it was cleaned by beetles. That is by far the best way to have a skull cleaned. But yes a little more expensive.

Good lookin display.
