This was a bear i took while early season deer hunting last fall. Taken by crossbow at 22 yards. Driving home: ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51093370450_2e8672f60f_k.jpg) Different View: ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51093371605_f2cbd80f7e_k.jpg) Pic with my noggin beside for scale, my face is actually closer to the camera so the bear looks smaller than it actually is. Skull green scored 19 5/8 inch. Still in my freezer - plan is to do my own euro mount with it: ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51093372410_4c0867b014_k.jpg)

Which one is the bear   Congrats that is awesome  Help this confused city boy. You just got it back from the taxidermist and it looks like he did a shoulder mount already, I guess not if you are going to do a Euro. What did the Taxidermist do for you on the bear?

Taxi skins the head and takes measurements. Inside of mount below skin is foam replica skull. I have had skull since he skinned it
