Giving me flashbacks of my taxidermy days....
It's coming right along and looking nice. You have a special spot in the house for it?
Tim B
It is looking good Graps.I like it.
I thought the ribbons hanging there looked familiar. Ann has done a couple deer mounts for me and I just got my bear rug back from her that I shot in New Brunswick, she does an awesome job!!!! You'll be very happy with her work.
Jason
Have a spot in the corner of our livingroom.
I'm just worried about how my Jack Russell Terrorist is going to react to it.
Looking good! I've never had anything done by her but know a guy with a couple deer by her. They all looked great.
Will there be room left for your 2019 bear? :bigsmyl:

I'm pretty sure this will be the last full mount.
Unless I get one with a very nice chest blaze.
Looking Great
Looking good in the neighborhood..... nice bear mount.
Graps-- wanted to hear the story of that bear-- were you in the blind @ the Coleman bait? How did the bow do--I am going to take my L'il Favorite (really the same as yours, made by Gregg) this year . How was the weather last year? I am wondering as we are going the same week this year even tho it is week#1....hotter? More activity? Any info appreciated. Thanks.
Second week and it was hot. I was hunting the Solo Can.
Second week again this year.
Stopped by to see how this bear coming along.
The hide has been died black and needs stitching on the hind legs. And the eyes and nose need painted.

I doubt I would do a full mount again, but if I did get one with a nice blaze on its chest, :dunno: :saywhat:
