Sneek and semi sneek mounts... show me.

Got one at the taxidermist and I need to decide. I told him semi seek/right turn, and will most likely stick with it, but have seen some full sneeks that look great.
I never liked full sneeks when they where straight. But some of these newer ones with the slight head turn to one side are very sharp.
So can you show me some and help me decide? He's not a monster, hence the decision to go with this type of form.

I think this was supposed to be a semi sneak with a slight right turn.

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

I don't have a pict, but I went with full sneak left turn. My old Maine house has ceilings that are under 7'. I went with a form from Mckenzie (same folks who make targets). Here is a link to the one I have chosen, though I may shift to the head up. a couple of pages later.

Too cool!
Do you mind me asking who did the taxidermy?
Reason I ask, I'm told that there's a really good taxidermist in Atlanta that I'd like to see about doing my Black Wildebeest. I can't find a website & I can't remember his name! All know is that he's very, very good & does African game!

Here is a semi-sneak. I like sneak and full sneak poses. They bring the rack closer to eye level. Someone told me once to make your mounts look good on the wall place them so their eyes are just above your eye level. It works for me.

It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.
