I have two black tail heads in the living room and a bob cat getting done that will also be in the living room. wife has no say well kind of but not much.

I have my largest bowkilled blacktail (136"), a Montana whitetail, my first pronghorn, and a strutting gobbler in the living room. :smile: The elk antlers are in the garage, but I still have room in the living room for my bighorn when I get it. Now if they'd give me a tag after 30 years

Got a Wyoming Antelope still in the crate. Did anyone else not know about caping out behind the shoulder blade for a head mount?

Tilla...I always take the cape clear back into the ribcage, gives the taxidermist plenty to play with.

Is your pronghorn already done? Did the taxidermist just do a neck mount?

My wife said no to the last blacktail, so it's at a friends house. Currently out of room with 4 blacktail, pronghorn, bighorn,and cats with both long and short tails. Guess I can't complain. Need a den.

Fortunately the new house has a Den. The elk head, two antelope, some mule deer antlers and some ducks, my wife thinks it makes the room kind of morbid. I have a bear rug being done know, not sure where that will go. You can never have too much cape!!!

Sliverpicker,
They had to use another cape, it's a shoulder mount. It's my only animal I have had mounted. It was done in Green River Wy.
