Hiller, you can buy deer capes for just about any price tag,
most capes are fully skinned-out, all you need to do is to
flesh it and tan it, my dealings have been about $40-$60
range for them, you also could buy pre-tanned capes that
all the work is done for you, all you need to do is mount
it, they run about $80-low $100. The company in which you
purchase the cape from should give all the info about the
different capes (sizes w/regards to the measurements along with
the other things such as condition, skinning holes,long hair
or short etc) One thing make sure you ask questions before
you buy anything, don't worry about over asking, if they can't
tell you what you want to know have them call you back w/ the
info or call someone else. hope this helps, Chris.


Thanks Chris

Thanks for the information Chris, that helps a great deal. Now maybe I could get some heads to mount this summer since I am just a beginner,
Thank you
