I was able to harvest my very first axis this summer, I'm going to shoulder mount him and wanted to see if y'all had any ideas of poses?
I'm planning to tan the entire hide and then turn the rest into a pillow too.
Thanks!

Upright, shoulder, slight left or right is always a good look.
Congratulations.

Beautiful trophy buck! Would make a very impressive pedestal mount.

Mine is the middle one. Shot at Double Arrow, thanks again Curtis. Aaron at Texas Wildlife did a fantastic job on the mount.

This is one that Taylor at TnT Taxidermy did for me. I wanted something a little different. It's a Jets form, full sneak wall pedestal. I'm pretty happy with the way he came out. 
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Here's another one Taylor did on the same form.

I like the full sneak but with the front legs - to me it would be worth the extra money
