Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Antelope mount - yes or no?

roundoak - Maybe I'm just too traditional and like shoulder mounts because they have been around forever. I do have quite a few pedestal mounts that are basically a shoulder mount with a finished, sculptured back, and I like them. I also have several wall pedestal mounts which give variety to the traditional shoulder mounts. My personal opinion of the mount you pictured is that the extended body just looks weird, so for me the answer would be no.

Also, I think the dead grass only coming out of the cow skull's eye hole looks weird, and I would prefer it to only come up from the ground. Picky, picky, picky.


Not an Antelope dio-rama, but here's my "Pheasant under glass," complete with a few arrowheads, in the corner of my Trophy Room bar.
