For some reason, a lot of Taxis's can't get the eyes right on a Cat. That's the 1st thing I look for, if the eyes aren't right, I don't even bother to look at the rest of the mount. This Cat is outstanding. Great job.

Matt, right now the bobcats are good hunting. Males roaming looking for females. Good chance to get a nice big one. After mid April their winter coat is going to change back to summer coat
and I would wait till next winter to get one if you plan to have it mounted. Makes for a better mount.

That is the best Bobcat mount I've EVER seen. The face is perfect and the pose is great too.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

I've never seen a bobcat mount that the face looked even halfway correct, until now. Best I've ever seen. Very nice work.

perfect ! Cost estimate ? $565 for the cat mount and $200 for rockledge = $765 plus 6.25% sales tax if you are a TX resident. Until April 1st we give 10% off to THF members for lifesize mounts.

That would go head-to-head with any of the big boys mounting and probably win first place. Innovative and well done.
