Does anyone know of any supplier (large or small) that might have an oddball form to fit a very large elk. I've searched most of the suppiers. There is nothing even close. Cutting up and making a form larger isn't a problem. I do it almost every day. I'm just hoping to find something in the ball park before I start cutting one up. This is a pen raised elk. This bloodline produces some very large bodied elk. Believe it or not the measurements are nose to eye 15" The small of the neck just below the ears is 41" The swell around the atlas 4" down from the ears is 46". To top it off both sets of shed antlers need to be pinned to be removable so both sets of the 416" and 477" antlers are interchangeable on the same head. Once the customer got over the sticker shock on the cost to do the work. He decided to hold out until he gets back from all his hunts this fall. He may decide to use one of his normal size elk.
