Default Post pictures of your mounts that are looking straight on

I wanted to see some pictures of some other mounts that are looking straight on not turned to one side or the other. Any guys have ones like this?

straight mounts are the worst way to mount a whitetail.i have one thats very old,i think 1983 . i'll never have another on a straight form,most get that "deer in the headlights look".

Well, I have one mounted straight on and kind of feel this way about it. However, I wanted to see some others to see if they looked similar or if it was just how mine was done. On one hand I feel that way about it but on the other hand I think a turned mount would look odd and out of place where I have it mounted. I'm not sure if I got another one done that I'd have it looking straight on though.

Agreed, I make my customers well aware of the look you get with a straight mount. The full uprights aren't quite as bad as the dreaded semi sneak straight but still look dead to me.
