Heres a bear shoulder mount I put on a moose shed.

that is awesome. Moosej do you do this for a living or a hobby? I think I am going to send you something frozen next fall!

Thanks a bunch LSmountainman. Im a grain farmer by trade and hobby taxidermist in the winter months.
Where out west are you from?

The Denver, CO area, but I frequent the wild side more than the city side!! Are you also going to mount your wife's buck? I sure would like to learn how you learned on the side, you do awesome work for a hobbiest...

Thanks for nice words,I was self taught ,went by some books and video,definately better manuals today.Im planning to mount my wifes buck,she says not,will be at the bottom of the pile.

This was a customers bear BuckTread.My bear is still in the freezer.

i should have sent you my bear since mine has been at the taxidermist since sept. of 2006

MIdeerslayer,what are you having done with your bear?Rug?

i was wondering if you were gettin it mounted, i remember seeing the pictures but no mount. Is it a full body? thats a long wait

that really looks good moosej i like the shed

yes it is getting mounted. it is a 3/4 with front paws on a log.
well i had it at a guys shop which has done a boar,ram,coyote and a deer for my dad and i. took it to him in sept. 06 and he said i would have it back around feb. well i didnt bother calling him until march and than it all began. gave me the run around for 2 months but i finally got it back and now it is at another taxidermist. been there since nov. so yes i got screwed out of some money and i still have not got my skull back yet. im about to pay him another visit but this time it might not be so nice.
sorry to steal your post moose but had to vent.
will post pics when i get all my mounts back
