Gotta love when the Taxidermy calls and say's "Farmtiger, we have your mount ready"

Especially after only having it one (1) week!!!

I would be VERY worried about a mount that is completed in a week. Look it over meticulously before paying and taking it home.

No sir, not taking that.

My family has used this guys for years and I have one at the house already that he's done, plus my BIL and Nephew have some by him. He's a reputable guy.

How ever I would not be surprised if it's a different deer. ha ha

Thanks!! Took him opening weekend and an 8 pt my very next hunt the following weekend.

Never killed a nice deer like that and then kill a 10 and an 8 in back to back hunts. Needless to say I've been on cloud 9 all season!!

My last shoulder mount had to dry on the taxidermist wall for over a week with pins holding the ears, nose and eyelids in place. Thats after they prepared the hide and put it on a form which had to be odered and shipped.

It's a nice deer, I hope it's all good. Hopefully Thanksgiving week I'll be the someone shooting deer somewhere in Union Parish.

Thanks!! Love me some God's country!! Good luck, but if you don't kill anything at least you'll be able to call heaven and not pay long distance fee's. ha ha

Never heard of a turn around like that. Sounds suspicious. Let us know how it turns out

Most taxidermist allow mounts to cure for a time period.

Pictures don't do him justice!!! When I walked up to pay and saw him he was prettier than I remember him being and he is a beautiful buck maybe not in his antlers but, his coat and face. The guy is a reputable guy and if it's as good as the other work I've seen and have it'll last a long time.
