First Buck Big Buck -Good Taxidermy Ottawa Valley

[idunno1987]

Well shot my first buck this morning. a dandy 12 pointer at 200 yards, thought I missed because he disappeared through the fog, once the fog cleared he was laying there, double lung that clipped the spine. Bang Flop.

Anyways im looking for recommendations for taxidermists in the Ottawa Valley.

right now im in contact with whitetail taxidermy in carp. ANy other recommendations?

nice deer you have there

i am guessing you are going for a skull mount now you lopped the head off?

cape is attached, just cant see from that pic, no cuts above the cape line besides the one needed to get the windpipe out (I couldnt get it through chest cavity )

Was thinking the same thing. European mounts are actually fairly easy to do yourself. Lots of great videos on line.

Yup, if that's all he has left of the hide, he's pooched himself out of a nice head mount.

Jesus! Buck shooting steroids, eh. What a beast!

 

[idunno1987]

As stated cape was not cut above sternum hes gonna be a shoulder mount no good pics of him skinned out. but I promise its there lol!

Congrats.

Rick Poulin of Rick's Whitetail (he owns Canada Goose Taxidermy as well) past away last year so I think Whitetail Taxidermy is the only one in the Ottawa area. It might take you a year to get the mount back. Rick's turn around time was ~5 months for comparison. He mounted 4 bucks for me over the years.

Very nice deer .you should not have cut the front throat area to get the wind pipe out that will be tough to hide .good luck hope you find a great taxidermy guy..Dutch

Nice deer! The double brow tines are really cool!

Cheers

Taxidermie Robillard in Laval,QC does really nice work, he did a mount for me a few years ago.

There is antlers on that deer??!!

I only thought our prairie deer grew bodies like that.

Massive body, well done, might be some sausage there.

nice buck congrats

 

[idunno1987]

Thanks , looks like ill be going to whitetail taxidermy. Any Idea on how you get the patch for successful deer hunt?

It's over an hour west of you but Vogal's in tweed has completed 5 mounts for our crew over the years.

 

[idunno1987]

Another question. Can Iget him scored after he is mounted. Never shot a buck and am unsure of how the process works

I really like the European mounts as well. You can do them yourself relatively simply. Just make sure no one you like is downwind when you are doing the boiling.................
Great buck!
