Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Is taxidermy worth it

Taxidermy is always worth it as long as it's worthy of being mounted. Personally, I only have 4 mounted because they were unusual. This was my first buck ever and am pleased I invested the money even though I was broke at the time.



A couple of years ago I got a "Hat Trick". I killed an 8 point with a Bow, Muzzle Loader, and Shot Gun. The deer were nice, but not worthy of getting them mounted. So I went into my father's wood shop and found this nice slice of Walnut with the bark still on it and finished it and gave it to my Taxidermist and had the racks put on it.



The rest of my bucks and dinks go on the wall in the man cave. I drill a hole through the skull and run a drywall screw through it and into the wall.
