Unique Wall-Pedestal Poses

highsierra · Dec 7, 2023

Looking for unique examples of wall-pedestal poses.

Trying to re-create a "rutty" look (lip curl?) in a semi or full sneak neck position. Maybe even have head titled on one side....Just need something to reference for discussion with my taxidermist.

Whatcha got out there in MM Land? Post em up here....

Thanks,
-HS

Been looking...havent found anything other than "standard" (non-altered) poses. Thought I might give it a try here....

i think he means find a pic of a live buck behaving the way you want to emulate and see what the taxi can do. lot of pretty good wildlife photography out there. and on here quite frankly.

I have found a couple photos that kinda looks like what I’m hoping for…just hoping lo see some custom wall pedestal mounts. Maybe I’ll see some thing I like better.

This is a wall pedestal form that I manufacture.

Congrats on a great buck.

Most every wall pedestal mount I’ve seen has the head/neck in an upright position. Can it be done in a semi sneek or full sneek? That’s what I’d like to see to determine whether I like it or not.

Yes. Some of the Joe Coombs whitetail wall pedestals are like that.

Quick picture, and photos do not do it justice. Mount actually looks very good on the wall. This is a black tail I had my taxidermist alter a wall pedestal. I wanted the head below the top of the back. Will try and get better photos tonight if you want.
