Great looking mount! They did a great job with the little details by the looks of it. I can't wait to get mine back and hung up in my office too! We just finished planting season here so its hard for me to think its already getting to be scouting season!

I am not really experienced with mounts, but I am always amazed at the detail that these guys can make.

I also learned a valuable lesson to not leave the cape behind on these higher altitude bucks that are really thick skinned and fat. They really struggled to find a cape that would support these big bases, and it really narrowed down their choices. I am going deer hunting this year with somebody that is experienced in caping, and can hopefully give me some training.

thanks for the great comments. we will get my brothers buck in a couple weeks. it will be about 50ft down the hallway. we think we are improving the office look by at least 200%. We are keeping them tastefully out of view from the main lobby. My nice co-workers have already decorated him with pretzels and Christmas ornaments. I hope that wears off soon. I don't want him to turn into a holiday tree.
