Personal points of view aside.....

How many have used a Gobbler Guillotine?? How many have seen it on TV or in the DVD's and yet still purchase that companies products?? I think the species of animal taken with a bow plays a big part in each of our "ethical animal shot placement."

So if 10% hunt, 10% don't and the "remaining 70% watch", who are the other 10%?

70%+10%+10%= 90%???

Well it interests me that you say the client thought it was a trophy.... Well usually people get they're trophies mounted, what makes me curious is how he planned to show off that trophy with an arrow sticking out of its face, I don't like it but then again, you asked us for our opinions, so why are you getting so upset that we ALL hate it.

I am not really upset, but just surprised that you guys find it so offensive..
regarding the trophy we use a very good Taxidermist in South Africa, they have ways to fix that. but the arrow in the head might not be such a bad idea :-)

I found it a little grotesque and marcabre but that's just me. I think the more disturbing part of this is the presentation but again, that's just my opinion.

Pretty much the gist of this is, you suck, and you prob lost some business down the road. Don't come and look for approval and when you don't get it be suprised.
