On My Own Taxidermy!! Wifes Deer

thegamegtr · Jan 8, 2012

Just got this done. This is the buck my wife shot last fall. I had to learn how to do taxidermy so I could afford to put animals like this on the wall. Just this year, I have my sons whitetail, my daughters muley, my muley and antelope to mount up. If I had a taxidermy business, I would call it 10 foot taxidermy...meaning from 10 feet it looks pretty good

Sorry about the black and white photo--not real good at this computer stuff

Looks like you may have a new profession, that mount looks very good, looking forward to seeing the next one you finish.

Did you use a video or book or anything to help you? If so which one. I think it looks great!

Great job on the mount. Oh and the black and white pic looks old school.

That mount looks great.I had a mount done by a guy in the business for many years that everyone recomended that dosnt look half that good.I would say you have some talent.

Great Job! Did you learn any tricks you wanted to share?

Looks good from as far away as Montana too.

Big O · Jan 9, 2012

I admire you for even trying that, not to mention it looks real good from here too.

Looks very nice , wish I could say my first one looks that good. I keep it around just to remind me how far I've come. Lawnboy if you are looking for a dvd on mounting heads , Rick Carter' whitetails a to z is excellent. It is available from Wasco.

Good idea...try it out on the wife's deer first!

Looks great!

Thanks! I learned from a friend who learned from a very good taxidermist. If I run into any problems, I have found that taxidermy.net has a lot of helpful tutorials. Thanks Again
