Awesome rack, the taxi should have stretched the cape on a bigger form he looks a little skinny in the neck

nice
short shoulder mount
upright


leave more cape and ask for more defined shoulder
makes for a lot better looking mount

just ask for a BEN MEARS form to be used to mount your deer

A cape can only be stretched so much. According to every hunter, their buck had the biggest neck. Truth is, a lot of taxidermist measure the neck FROM THE CARCASS. So the mount is just like the live deer. Other taxidermist measure the neck after the cape is tanned, which is typically close to the original. It is like asking to put 10lbs of $hit in a 5lb bag.
