What are you hunting/fishing?

cdavis for some reason I just can’t get into the pack mounts. Yours is the first one I have seen with the blanket and old style canteen. Pretty cool. Do you know what forms you use? I have not seen them with that kind of muscular detail. Or does your taxidermist sculpture the form more from the factory to get that detail?
twilliams the form is called a stubby. I do taxidermy for a hobby. I mount 40 to 50 heads a year. I use all Dan Chase forms. To show any detail you have to rework the forms. I do it to all my mounts. I like the detail and so do my customers .I think it’s worth the extra work. 20160430_150924.jpg

twilliams thank you very much. It took some trial and error on my own stuff to get it where I liked it.

cdavis Very nice. I got one thing off my bucket list this year, shot a cinnamon teal and my hunting partner mounted it for me, twice the memories.

bocephus that’s awesome
. The great thing about a mount is every time you look at it you go right back to that great day. -

twilliams I put 2 pictures on there but only 1 shows. If you click the blue line above the picture the other 1 will show. There you can see some good facial detail. I must say I’m surprised you picked up on the detail on the pack mount. Most people wouldn’t. It must be the photographer in you.

cdavis i am very a n a l and i feel i have a great eye for detail. I am a perfectionist and most times im my own worst enemy because of it. I noticed something else on your shoulder mount that most taxidermists dont do although i like what you did with it.

twilliams what would that be?

cdavis I thought some of yall might enjoy seeing this. I just finished mounting one of my bow kills from last year. It’s called a pack out mount. I put it on a pack frame like you would pack one out from a remote area.
cdavis That is amazing, very nice!

cdavis sprayed some type of clear coat or oil on the rack to make it glossy. Looks like perhaps a semi gloss

twilliams I always wipe every rack with furniture oil. It keeps them from drying out and looking dull. It needs to be done at least once a year.
