Hello I have a guy that wants a buffalo sholder mounted and I was woundering what the going rate is and if I could use a dry presurve or do I have to get it tanned?
Thanks

It's just easier on all fronts. Have it done commercially where it can be shaved down from its inch thick hide to a workable thickness and combed out if possible. I know East Coast will comb them at an extra charge. Old Dominion tannery includes the combing in their charge. I'm not sure about the others.
I think that it would be kind of interesting to see some before and after pictures of a DP buffalo mount.
Go with the wet tan. It is the best by far. Just keep frozen until ready to mount!
Well for a few days until the hair slips. Why worry about the hair being combed out? Its not natural! It should be ragged, dirty and smelling like *&^% to be a good mount.
Lets see dped you should get about $350.00 or tanned and combed out $1750.00 (oh, you may need help to lift anf fit the skin.)
