Elk on the wall

[bonehunts]

I had to face the reality that I don't have a high enough ceiling to put a full shoulder mounted elk on the wall at my house so I opted for the euro mount and had my taxi freeze the wet-tanned hide in the event I convince my wife that we need to pop the top on my man cave and make room. Pretty happy how we turned out.

Awesome. I like euro mounts better than shoulder mounts.

You could always do a pedestal mount if you don't have room on the walls.

Nice mount and a good plan taking care of the cape for future reference.

Great elk!! Pedestal would be an option but get it or the shoulder done when you can. That is a big big beautiful magestic elk, would look great as a shoulder. Euros are nice too but on a big elk like that a shoulder is awesome.

I really like euro on the middle of the road animals. That thing is a bruiser. Still looks nice though!

Couldn't you do a turn with his head tilted back? Would that not fit? Or, shoot smaller bulls. Lol

Appreciate all the comments guys. I may end up getting a shoulder mount done but have to finish a house remodel now that doesn't allow for a shoulder mount without a pedestal solution. I'm leaving my options open and pushing to get my GC to raise the only ceiling I have a choice to without killing my pocketbook. Who knew a majestic elk would have THIS domino effect on my budget?!?!

You can't go wrong with a shoulder or euro.

Whatever you do, don't compromise on the pose due to space restrictions. If you can't get the shoulder mount in the right pose, then leave him euro'd.
