OK, Here's my opinion.....pix are tough to critique!
Just a little backround,and not to brag at all,most folks don't even know I'm a taxidermist...but....I'm a two time National champion whitetail taxidermist(Highest scoring/best head in the country ), I've judged many shows,some big one's too...like I said,not bragging,just wanted to let Bigriver know that I kinda know what I'm talking about....
From the pix....You sir have a fine looking mount!
The guy earlier was absolutely right....that a Meder whitetail form. There isn't a whitetail that's alive today that you can't find a form for.They make them extremely big now! Back in the "old days", maybe.....
The neck is typical for a big swelled neck form. When a deer turns it's head one way, sometimes the opposite side of the atlas vertebrae looks like it's sticking out too much.Especially on a big swelled neck deer. Some forms are a bit overdone,and this one might be a little.But not out of the realm of whats possible....
The eyes look like they are done very well to reproduce the heavy eyed look of a mature buck....very nice!
To me the ears look fine too....focused forward,but not too much....
Skin and hair patterns all appear to be where they should be...
Like I said this is from the pix......
He's a good lookin' dude!!
