Hey guys I'm looking for opinions.  I know this is totally subjective and there will be a lot of different opinions, but I want your expertise.  What pose will show this buck off the best.  I know some of you guys will have opinions on which pose looks best on wide bucks, tall bucks etc.  What should I do???

Thanks for any input.

I would consider a right turn that exposes the 3 py side. That way it wont look like you are trying to hide it.

Good point...I like it.  I actually want to show off that side too.  I think its pretty cool...you don't see many Big 3 pt sides. 


If you have a form you would recommend as well as eyes let me know that as well.  I should mention that I have 4 heads already and they're all coming off the wall and looking left.  I could really use a buck coming off the wall and looking to his right or a straight on shot.

LOL! Tracker, thats as far as I can get you. Sorry man, but Im not a Taxidermist. The last two Whitetails I had mounted were done on McKenzie 8000 series and their HD series. I love them both.

Heres the HD mount.


This one is either the 8600 or the 8400.

Great looking buck, Id say show off the 3 pt side as well and maybe have him in a semi turned position of some sort. Just my opinion. Congrats though!

Use a form with an offset shoulder to emphasize the pyhsical size of the animal. You want a right turn use one!

That's one big buck!  I like the semi sneak turn forms, but that's just my preference.  Maybe for this guy though a upright with a turn would look better.  I'm no expert either.  I'm sure the pros on here can give you better ideas, lol.

I'd go with the Ben mears off set sweep. That pose would show off his big neck and shoulders great. Congrats on a great buck, let us know what you pick
