Dont buy Tru-Fit

I bought a semi-sneak mule deer form from Tru-Fit. I would have had to stretch the chest almost 8--9 inches to get it to fit! It was aweful, sort of like trying to get Chris Farley into David Spades suit coat. "Fat man in a little coat". I will never buy from them again and am currently "looking" for my favorite form.

McKenzie or Research

I really like McKenzie's forms, or Bill Lancaster's forms from Research.


Depends on the area.......

The form best for your deer will depend on your area, we primarily get desert mule deer, and the tru fit forms fit them very good, some of the McKenzie forms work well also.


Thanks

Thanks for your input.The mulies I'am mounting are from Saskatchewan and have neck sizes from 22"-24". I've been looking at the McKenzie& Bill Lancaster forms,they look pretty good! How about Joe Coombs forms?
Thanks Again,Dereck


Stick with the other two

I love Coombs antelope and elk forms. They are really nice. I just don't like the look I get from their mulies. Just my opinion.


Forms...

I think McKenzie makes nice forms, but the chest area is just too big. Every deer I have mounted on one I had to battle with it to get the last 6" of sewing done.

I think Lancaster forms from Research are nice, but they have a slight Roman nose on them, so you either love it or hate it.
