I did my own. I still need to build a base for it. I am thinking black walnut. Here is a pick of the 5x5 and my nephew Hunter Tobin. Also laying on the back of the couch is the tanned hide that is from the same bull.
later

This is one from My shop I did this year. As you can see this one has the lower jaw, just one of the options you have.
I build the bases, out of either cedar, pine or hemlock, oak walnut and specialty woods are a little more but can be done. I also have an engraved plaque with your name and what the elk scored with the date of the kill and how IE bow muzzle loader, riffle. I charge $250.00 for elk and $195.00 for deer. With a 10% discount for the site supporters.
My work is guaranteed.
And I keep the sinus webbing and nose webbing in as well.
One thing you want to remember is it’s your trophy. You get what you pay for, and you don’t want the taxidermist to take short cuts in your mounts. It may not show for awhile, but it will eventually. I hope this helps you out. If you have any questions feel free to call the shop.
