RE: BIG-Necked Bucks
 
I have a friend that's a taxidermist and he said that the mounts are usually a little smaller because of a bit of shrinkage during the tanning process....usually about 1" around the neck I think. I'll just have to be sure to shoot one with a hulking neck next time that there won't be any mount shrinkage! LOL

Awesome pics, very nice deer!! I think thats the difference between a good taxidermist. The good ones take mesurements.
