I usually am pretty good at searching and finding things on here. Can’t find it.:embara:

Saw guys have a buck head mount (just head, no shoulder or anything) with the rolled cape underneath. Kinda looked like a rucksack.

Anyone know what I’m talking about. Lol.

Hoping to get some info/pics

Thanks!

I don't want anything on my wall that looks as though I should be smelling it just standing in the room.

My cousin has a bighorn sheep that is a regular shoulder mount, except the taxidermist incorporated the skin of the rear end in the back ground. Sheep have that cool looking, rusty red... ( ) shaped butt marking. Kind of like an elk.

Ya, not my cup of tea. Those mounts are really well done and I respect the craft, but I find it really odd as you’d never roll up a hide and pack it out. If that was a thing, I’d understand it....

Older thread I know, but this is the pack mount I did of my 2018 buck. I think it turned out awesome!! Retired the stand that year (killed lots of deer from that lone wolf) and thought, why not make it part of a mount lol. Some may hate it, but I love it :)
