TenXTimmy Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 https://youtu.be/kbhUmjTbmDY I was very fortunate to spend the morning with Wildlife Encounters Taxidermy in the Hudson Valley of NY. McKensie Turner did a fine job explaining the ins and outs of mounting my wife’s 2021 buck. I hope you enjoy the video! I never knew how much work went into taxidermy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNY Bowhunter Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 There's WAY more too it than most people realize. I don't do my own tanning now, but would if I ever tried to make a career out of it. Another thing that most hunters don't realize either is that there's a HUGE difference in a crappy deer head on the wall and a true quality deer mount. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
