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

I really enjoy seeing nice taxidermy work, but have never spent the money for it until recently. I've wanted a shoulder mount of a mature mule deer for as long as I've been hunting and shot this one last year. Though I don't consider it particularily large, I took it with a BPCR and cast bullet (something else I've wanted to do for years) and spent the better part of a day trying to get close enough for the shot. It has more meaning to me than any critter I've shot, including several mature bull elk. It very well might be the only shoulder mount I ever have done, though there will be more European mounts which I think I prefer...
