Got a feeling who ever mounted this deer never
used any reference photos. Check out the eyes &
ears on this guy!

If you were buying that mount, You'd only be paying for it, to just get the horns.

Terry, I hope your not saying that Taxidermy is not a Real job. If you have taxidermy as a real job, we have as many bosses as we have customers.

taxidermy is easy compaired to Shwans work, believe me, it takes alot out of you. I think terryr ment that he gets benefits and a steady paycheck with the route job. And his taxidermy is just extra. You may depend on taxidermy more than he does, and yes you would have as many bosses as customers. You may have a hundred bosses a year, where terry would have that many in one day.

I'd tell him to remove the antlers. The pannel might also be worth some money. He could keep the head.

terry you may see ears forward like that but you dont see them that low, the ear butts should be up by the bases of the antlers.

the antlers, and the panel looked great. The head didn't look too bad. It was just the eyes and ears that were horrible.
