Sorry boys, but IMHO there is only one place to send a mountain lion if you want it done right.Phil Soucy is amazing. His work is more consistently accurate than anyone else I've ever seen. http://www.philipsoucy.com/index.tpl See example below. That is a wonderful job, but I have never been big on open mouth mounts. They just always look fake to me. This is about a 100 pound cat that I am very happy with the looks of. I have another full body of a 120 pound cat, but the taxidermist (same one) had a stroke and died literally while mounting it, and it completely dried before it could be finished. I keep it where you can't see it real well.

Joel, Way to go, bud! That Bowtech sure made things look interesting. Would have liked to see you haul the 358 SFB up there for that! I'll be over with Ritzi sometime to check out the pics.

Big +10 or whatever were up on Phil Soucy cats. Not many in the same league...but many think they are. Compair their work to Phil's, and see why he is the best!
