For me, it really depends on when I shoot my buck, at some points it wouldn't suprise me to get my buck back within 3 months and at other times it wouldn't suprise me for an 8 month wait. My longest wait was for a full body coyote mount, I have had 4 trout, a turkey, a buck, and a coyote done by the same guy that Rybo uses and he has always had GREAT turn-around times!
nah, you can stop by or i would call, to the guys' credit who did mine he doesnt do it full time... i didnt wanna bother him, so i just let him call me.
Exactly. That's the way I feel about mine as well... especially the 10-year part. Three 2nd places at the World Taxidermy show in the Master's Division over the years as well as winning every state championship in the Midwest pretty much backs up the work mine does... and I'm sure you feel the same way about yours. One thing I don't cheapskate on is my mounts; they're for the rest of my life and possibly well into my kids' lives as well.
I know, I know...this thread is from a year ago, but just wanted to update all of you on my mount. Sadly, he is still not on the wall, but at least I have him back! Here is a picture.
going on two years for my biggest buck and havnt gotten him back just yet but really really soon and my other one from last year he just started but he was really busy from last season he had like 70 or 80 mounts to do so i told him take his time no hurry but he does amazing work and man you have a heck of a nice mount looks good
