    What the going price for a skull / euro mount. Seams that by the time you send out to have cleaned and shipped you have to charge way to much. I know do it your self.

    I do them myself. $125, skull only, $160 on a Euro Panel. Lots of guys here continue to boil them for $50.

    We don't boil and charge $50 for cleaned and whitened, $70 on plaque. That's just the going rate in my area. Shoulder mounts in my area, we don't do those, is $360-$450.

    $150 on a cedar flat-back. May go up to $175 this year. And, yes, I do them myself…

    I quit, to many guys doing them cheap. Life got a lot better, now I hunt more and deal with shoulder mounts!

    I need to come down there and buy me a new Ford F-150 , probably get it for 15K in your “I can’t get that price in my area”, area. These yankees up here are getting,$850.00 to $975.00 for deer heads and forget a new F150.

    I get $135 euro mount on a wood plaque. I also raised my shoulder mounts to $450. and just told a kid tonight, to never ever cut the neck on a deer. Front slice, missing hair other spots, I can seen the hair has been cut out, I told him $200 for a new cape. plus the mounting fee. Would have been a great mount. I figured it to be a 26inch neck, saw trail cam pics looks to be a 5year old.

    $200 with a standard hanger. $45 additional for flat panel and $90 additional for pedestal. I farm them out... I simply don't have the time to mess with them.

    People on my street moved down a year ago and another friend around the same time. Hope they don’t bring their voting habits with them.

    Yeah, I"m sure that's what is happening! one of the local realtor said it's unbelievable how many people are moving in...he said he's been in business for over 25yrs and it's more than he's seen. they are changing our little communities...
