Back from the taxidermist ...
« on: November 27, 2011, 04:17:00 PM »
Well, I finally got the fox I shot last fall back from the taxidermist and thought I'd post a pic.  I think he came out pretty nice.

Very nice!!  I have a red fox mounted in the same pose, and also a pedistal mount red fox. They are two of my all time favorite mounts.

Gray fox is such a good looking animal.  Really shows well as a mount.  This one is beautiful.  Love those colors.  Congratulations.

Mr. Magoo, was this shot in NC?  If so do you have a nice population down there?  Not many of here in southern NJ.  Haven't seen one in years.

That is a very *handsome* fox mount!

The taxidermist did good.

If I ever get a light-color phase coyote with a good coat, I hope to have a similar mount....

Enjoy!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Thx for the kind words.

Mike,  Yep. Shot him in NC.  I've seen several foxes over the last 5 or 6 years.  Had a big one under my stand a couple of weeks ago ...

Beautiful!
I killed one with my truck on the way home from camp. Feel horrible, still. Your mount does the creature justice, I bet in low light he still moves!
