My taxidermist sent me an e:mail... our bucks are finished!

Post by ohioexocetfan »

Mine is on the left, my 11 y/o son's is on the right. I get to pick them up tomorrow! A friend of mine from highschool started messing with taxidermy about 3 years ago. He took my buck last year to some kind of contest and got 2nd place in the state in the commercial division. For only the short time he's been doing it, I think he's awesome! The form on the left is a Mears semi-upright, my son's buck is on a Revolution semi-sweep. We looked thru tons of websites and that is what he liked best. I can't wait to see them in person!

They are really nice. What was the final score on both? Did you mean semi-sneak on your son's Buck?

Yes PABOWDUDE60, I did mess that up a little bit. It's a Revolution form and they call it a relaxed sweep. Not a semi-sweep. I knew it had sweep in there somewhere. :lol:

He did a nice job on them

Those two are outstanding bucks. The one on the left has more bone on his brow tine (and thats singular) than my eight pointer from 2010. :shock:
