chas0218 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) I shot a nice wall hanger and am looking for an upright straight mount but head tilted down similar to the "Offset Upright Aggressive" by Ben Mears. I am looking for an upright with the chin tucked down. I want a pissed off look like he is about to start posturing. I thought about full sneak but I don't have room. I have a semi-sneak along with an upright but they aren't the look I want. I am almost thinking I have to go with a pedestal mount. I have an offset upright with left turn and like the way the chin is tucked. This is the offset upright aggressive left turn I have but just want a straight instead.

chas0218 Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Yeah I have been looking on there but nothing that I really liked. I might have to go with a pedestal mount with a turn to get the look I want Edited January 8, 2016 by chas0218 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letinmfly Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I don't remember seeing a mount the way you're describing. Usually the head is turned to one side or the other, like the one in the pic you posted. I'm sure a good taxidermist can alter the form to replicate what you're looking for. Good luck with it and post a pic after the mount is completed!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinsdale Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Any taxidermist worth taking a trophy to can make what you want, that is a simple modification. Edited January 8, 2016 by Dinsdale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chas0218 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) I'll have to give him a call and see what he thinks. The guy that did my previous mounts is very talented and does a great job he does it as a hobby and charges $325. My first mount cost me $250 he had to up his prices but $325 is still cheap for a good mount. Edited January 11, 2016 by chas0218 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
