When called and ask him if he used another cape he said that he didn't. The cape that on my buck now looks like it has been eaten by bugs or something.

It is not the same cape I assure you he is lying.

This mount looks like he's been shot up on Crank!

This one looks like he took a Quaalude, or been tokin weed and shootin tequila.

Sorry it turned out like this for you, I know it means a lot to have it looking right. Call Binnion Taxidermy in Devine 830-663-4958. He re-mounted 2 mule deer for me that my father killed in the early 50's and did a excellent job! His whitetail mounts are spot-on too! If his work wasn't good I would not recommend him on this forum. He has been in the business for a looooonnnnggg time.

It looks like when you asked for a different pose he just took your antlers off and stuck them on another mount that was already hanging on the wall- maybe one somebody never picked up from 15 years ago......

Exactly this!

That's a great buck and deserves an equally great, quality mount.

Here's a quote from the taxidermist from another thread. Yeah, I'm calling BS and calling him out.

"But we are are biggest critics most people are happy with what ever you give them as long as it looks like a cat lol.I have seen horrible mounts that people love."

Perhaps he took the OP for a sucker and just cranked out some carp hoping that the OP would be happy with it. As Desi used to say to Lucy, "You got 'splainin' to do".

So, Mr. Taxidermist, what gives? If I were the OP I wouldn't trust this guy to fix anything. I'd expose him for what he is and move on.

Sorry this happened to your deer. That buck deserves better.

My guess he was about to finish someone elses mount in that pose and just took your horns and then used their form and cape for the mount. Saved your old form and cape for the next poor guy to get screwed.

Where's the problem with this buck? He's sooo lifelike!!

The look on that buck's face makes me wonder what's happening to him on the other side of the wall. Looks like he's being violated.

You must be from East Texas...he has the that look...you know the one... "a deer in the headlights"

Just because he doesn't stand behind his product and won't face someone that he bent over, doesn't mean he isn't good at what he does. He has posted a lot of mounts besides the cat...


And @ LP

On the other side of the wall is the rear end mount with the tail up and a door bell button in "the hole". Someone might be "at" the door so to speak.

The throat patch on the OP's deer looks the same as the photo of it. . My guess is he reused the hide and in pulling it off the mount some hair came off with it.

The search feature is your friend!!

if he calls him out, i bet his wife or daughter would come on here and defend him. They seem like there the ones who are the man of the house

Not possible

Sure it is....If you didn't put it on worth a damn the first time...it would probably come off pretty easy

Its a whole different color. I don't think you could just compare throat patches and call it good.

Doesn't matter he just put his horns on another cape. The real question is why isn't he trying to make it right on here Like give him his money back!

I didn't even get an apology. When he called to say it was ready he said it came out real good. I don't know what deer he was looking at! but it wasn't mine.

Post it in the taxidermy section and ask if it is a "good" mount

Wheres that worst taxidermy thread THAT WAS HILARIOUS!
