guess we cant have an opinonin on here....



The man made this thread, askin` for advice on a taxidermist, not to be chastised for killin` a squirrel that he might or might not eat. That is nobodys business but his own.

Beautiful fox squirrel, he will make a awsome mount. The price varies a lot depending on who mounts it but they will average 180-210 bucks. I dont know where you are but Id suggest finding several taxidermist near you and go look at how their squirrels look. Not all taxidermist can make them look natural. Again congratulations and lets some pics when hes finished. Also...thanks Nic for cleaning it up!

Frog will mount him. Did a good job on mine, but its been several years and the price has gone up I'm sure.

I shot pretty one season before last,and I didn't think I wanted to have it mounted. I gave 2 a buddy who wanted one to mount. When I saw it man I wished I would have had it mounted myself.

Taxidermist had to make him about 1/2" smaller in diameter because of the bullet hole. Still looks good to me though....
