    This is the buck I shot October 21st with a muzzleloader. This is the first pedestal style mount I have had done and I am really happy with it. It will rotate 360 degrees on the base. Not sure how long he will get to stay upstairs in the den before being banished to the game room in the basement. lol By the way, I AM the man of the house and I still get it whenever she wants it!

    That looks sharp!!! I'm still not sure yet If I'll ever get one of these. It's different looking at a deer mount face level. Outstanding job the taxi did!!

    The taxi actually had one of his own on this same form that was on a flat habitat base just sitting on the floor. It was actually pretty cool. I like that I can move it around so easily.

    Looks awesome, I love the pedestal mounts. I had my 09 buck done in a pedestal and done the habitat myself.
