extreme sneak mount

[guywhofishes]

I have a low ceiling room and am considering mounting a deer for this room. I'm not typically a sneak mount fan but space is at a premium.

Any other forms besides McKenzie's Matt Thompson Extreme sneak I should consider?

Also - recommended taxidermists in FM area? Loved my last taxi but don't want to drive 140 miles.

Build an addition on the house for all things that are man.

If you haven't checked it out yet I'd put some though into pedestal mount. Did my elk that way. Not sure I'd ever put something on the wall again just looks better I think.

You need to find a taxidermist and ask for the "dumpster special".

Agreed - got one, but The Dumpster doesn’t have a lot of floor space.

You could make a really cool neat lamp becuase everyone likes a really really neat lamp.

I would gladly drive two hours for a quality mount. Let's see the specimen that is getting mounted

I really like the pedestal mounts as well. However, I am going to wait till the little ones are a little older to have on done.

I would do a pedestal mount also. Like the looks of them. Definitely do one if an elk.

Pics or we cant help you!

They even look better on the wall. I know that sound backwards, but they come off the wall and look great. Or you can put them on aforementioned pedestal.

He's spendy, but Sportsman's Taxidermy in EGF is where I'd go. Museum quality is an understatement.

Wall or pedestal, in either case you need a spot. Wall height is a concern but so is a spot on the floor to set a pedestal. They do take up some room. Another concern with a pedestal is animals. If you even think that one day your dog may take a liking to chewing or some day might own a dog that might chew, a pedestal is going to be a concern. Just a thought.

I have a semi-sneak mount on a buck I harvested a few years ago. I was in the same position as you are but I'm glad I went with it, I love it. To me it makes the mount more personable and natural. I have all mine done at Hermans Taxidermy in Jamestown, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I have a couple semi/sneak mounts. On one the chin is down a bit more than the other. I like the one with the chin down a bit so the antlers stick straight up rather than pointing back some. It doesn't matter when it's on a lower wall like I have it now, but if you ever move it to a higher wall and the antlers tip back some it's harder to see how nice they look.

yeah - that's why I like the form in the OP
