@WNY Bowhunter would need to chime in LOL.

I just finished a wall ped of a white doe from the Seneca Army Depot last night. This coming weekend I've got a buddy's bow buck to mount up, the following weekend I've got a MT mulie...THEN its your PIA Coombs wall peds. Unless, I do my own mount before them...lol.

In all seriousness, my goal is to have both before the 10/1 opener.

That white doe has to be cool; shoulder mounting them seems more practical than my piebald which unless it was a full body, you wouldn't get an appreciation for with a shoulder mount.

BTW have you checked out Mears forms? They seem popular too on the FB taxi groups.

No, but friends use them and like them. I'm sure I will give them a try this coming season as more sizing options become available. I did just buy one of his 8" replacement heads for my own mount that I still need to throw together.

Ladder desk going in. It’ll be cleaned up and stained to match the steps going into the house from this room. Will serve as a computer desk and a work bench function as it is counter top height.

It's really coming along nice Brad. 

I was wondering if you've decided on a date for the open house yet?  I'd be happy to bring a dish to pass.........

Lol won’t be any time soon. If I get my way at work, I’ll be in a stand in a month in Missouri.

First of the mounts up in corners. 

[WNY Bowhunter]

I like those corner mount hangers. May have to look into getting one for my wall ped of last year's freak buck if I ever get him mounted up.

[Robhuntandfish]

supposedly my taxidermist is the guy that invented the corner mount.  Guess he had a patent or something on it even.

These are different - these are full range hanging systems. Both of these are standard shoulder mounts with the Corner Full Range System bracket.

Love it ......

[phade]

So…I posted pics of the mounts on Full Range Systems in their Social Media contest and I won.

Won a single system.

Sweet!

Love everything, but I just feel a bit cramped looking at the doorway coming in. Heads are too close. Just me and just saying some critical advice is good at times. Now tell me to FO....lol
