Good lord, who in Houma wants $1000 for a shoulder mount?! There's barely anybody worth a shite to begin with

This is my son’s “no brow 9pt” done by Lonnie Adams @ $680


Jeff Deblieux in Houma has some really good work but he was $760 and and year + turnaround I believe.

Those are very reasonable for the quality they produce respectively. Although I'd say Jeff's best work comes in the form of feathers.

No one in Houma commands $1000. That's absurd. He either doesn't like you, doesn't want your work, or somehow knows your cape is messed up and needs a new one.

I know this guy brings mounts to competitions and wins awards. Maybe that’s how he justifies the price.

Looks like he does mounts from Safari’s too. Talking full body giraffes. I mean that shite gotta cost 10-15gs? If he’s getting stuff like that, could be another reason why he’s up there for white tail.

do your own euro skull mount or even pay $75-100 for someone to do it.
way cheaper
looks better
takes up less space.

so basically 100 bucks for every hour he talks to you when you drop off or pick up? LOLOL.
