Title: The Taxidermist finished my elk
Post by: FerretWYO on July 15, 2009, 10:34:00 PM
I had to find a little bigger place to keep him. My Dad Kindly agreed to keep him since he has my other two elk my bear and my Javalina. Ha ha Thanks DAD

Ah that one is too big and tough, you'll have to go back and get a smaller one Randy. But seriously, that is a fine elk with the bow. Hat's off.
If you get a chance, check out Herbs' zebrawood pronghorn I've posted.

That is a GREAT pedestal shoulder mount of that 6 x 7 bull!

Love those curly brow tines!

Would you mind tellin' us who did the awesome taxidermy and how long it took?

Your 2009 hunting season will be a humdinger if you outdo yourself on that specimen.  Have a good one!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Post by: FerretWYO on July 18, 2009, 02:20:00 PM
Fred he does have one removable horn. He would be really hard to move if not. I did not do that with my other one and we had to cut a new door way in lol.

very nice mount, I really enjoy seeing a good taxidermy job, beautiful animal.
Title: Re: The Taxidermist finished my elk
Post by: Greyfox54 on July 18, 2009, 04:30:00 PM
Randy , I'm paranoid about things sometimes so I had my moose horns detacheable so I can get them out of the house in case of a fire , also have a 3 1/2' door . Like I'll be home if my house burns down . It does make for easy moving though , Fred
