So while cleaning out my parents house this spring I took my father’s mount because he shot it when he was 12 years old in 1959. The ears were cracking and crumbling, the stitching was coming apart. I wanted to re-do it, but I really didn’t have room for another shoulder mount. I also wanted to see what the form looked like in the 1950s. It was interesting, to say the least. So instead of making a new shoulder mount, I decided to just take the skull cap and make a nice antler mount, while still honoring my Pop and his first buck. I think he’d be happy with it. I had a custom name plate made and can do the same for your mounts.
If anyone out there has an old mount they want re-done or “downsized”, reach out and I’d be happy to create something new for you. Here’s the before and after. Thanks for following RRWM.
