Hey guys!

Does anyone live in or near Fort Myers FL that could create a wooden pedistal for a whitetail shoulder mount to be put on? I will have my shoulder mount of my 156" KS 8 pointer shipped to me in the next month or two and looking to make a pedistal mount with it.

Let me know if there is anyone around my area that can make a nice looking one for me!

email: sgasparini@neogenomics.com
Cell: 860.830.4817

Thanks so much guys, I am so pumped to get my mount back from last Fall!!!!!!

Scott

Your best bet is going to be this. Search the internet for plans and styles that you like. There are a TON of ways to display a deer head on a pedestal base. Anywhere from corner mounts, to flush mounts to interior room mounts.

Find the style you like then print out pictures of it. Then find someone with some carpentry skills to make it for you
If you buy one online, I saw them listed from $250 and up to $800, plus shipping will kill you

You really need a finish carpenter, not a taxidermist. Also you will need a mounting bracket to fix it to the stand
