"TAKIN' IT TO THE SHOW"
This is a commerical mount but after thinking about it for a short time I'm takin' it to the KS. Taxidermy Convention. I hope to ribbon but it will be a learning experience as I have never done anything like this before!!! I know it is hard to tell by pictures but take a look and you can see more pics on my website @ www.bucksnbeardsllc.com. Sorry file to large so if you would visit website. Thanx, Doug

I don't know a whole lot but I know what looks good whenI see it. I like the ears both placement and shape. I have noticed that alot of deer mounts have ears that are cupped too much and look too long and lean. Yours have a super nice and natural amount of cup versus flattening toward the outer edges. Nice!

RE: "TAKIN' IT TO THE SHOW"
I received a 3rd place ribbon. I went in not expecting much since it was a comm. mount but was glad I went and learned what they are looking for in a "Comp.Mount". I am planning on doing another for the Iowa show or teh Ok. show and will post a picture of my deer when I get them over to the computer. Thanx for the nice comments about my deer and hopefully next time a red ribbon.
