What are you hunting/fishing?

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. -
cdavis that’s awesome you do it yourself, I’ve always wanted to learn it. That detail definitely puts on the charm
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.

bocephus I for one would love to see a picture of your mount.

Ken1261 thank you sir.

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
cdavis I like the look. Makes them look alive!

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.

twilliams another great catch by the way. You definitely have an eye for detail.

bocephus I had to miss an early teal hunt here a few weeks ago, made me sad to cancel as the guys limited out in not time. But I am going on a big duck hunt on 12/4, that I am really looking forward to.

HerbcoFood This one was a suprise, it was Jan. here. I have been duck hunting 50 years, first cinnamon teal and also shot my first banded goose. 2021 wasn’t a total loss.

bocephus We get some cinnamons down here, it’s few and far between. Most of the teal we get are blue and green wingers.

HerbcoFood That is what is mostly here, that is why it was a pleasant surprise when I finally bagged one.
