Pack out mount

[Sgt Fury]

Saw this on Facebook today. A friend from Ohio tug me in the post. Taxidermist is from WI. Something different for sure.

Saw this the other day, very nice

That is without a doubt a first for me.

I've seen this a few times. The ones I saw were mounted on old trapper frame packs. It's not my personal cup of tea, but I must say it's pretty interesting.

Never seen anything like it, pretty cool.

 

[GoetsTalon]

Pretty cool! Nice to see something different!

If’n I ever shoot another worthy of mounting, I’m getting this done....

Imo, this is very cool looking and unique! THANKS FOR SHARING THIS

 

[Gern186]

That is really neat. I would consider doing one for sure.

 

[Quantum673]

I like it. The price is pretty good too.

 

[Isaacorps]

Now THAT is cool!

If I was to actually pack one out, this would be damn cool. For me the mount is about the story and memory.

I like it! If I ever have to pack one out like this, I'd definitely consider this.

 

[Buckmaster]

If I ever get another one mounted I may roll this way. Nice concept. Meanwhile they go to the plastic tote.

I’ve packed out a few out west, this is now on my list!

I’ve seen a few people have taken the plunge and got one done like this. Pretty cool looking mounts, not one looks the same.

Around where I hunt in Ohio there was only one guy in close proximity who actually has done the. The couple other taxidermist that I had used previously all recommended the guy who I went too get mine done.

I like my mounts to be different. This fit the bill for me and after I seen it here, it just wouldn't leave my mind. It was my first year hunting without my dad by my side and I set out to kill a mature buck. Once I did, what better way to display one of his old licenses. Plus it went well with the old snow shoes. I was able to find an old percussion cap to throw in the mix. Not sure how I will tie it all in yet though.

Some kinda outdoors type scene...cedar tree, fence post, etc would do it but you’d still have to figure out how to put it all together. Maybe put some great thinkers together with an ample beer supply and let the ideas flow!

I will also add that if you plan to do this, save the entire hide, not just the cape. I chose to keep a couple of legs and went without the tail.
