crossy 666 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi, some time ago I shot my first big red stag and as it was my first i wanted the head taxidered. Well like a clown that I am I did not ask how much it would cost to have done as I was still to excited about shooting it. Any time now I am expecting a phone call to say it is done so can any one give me a ROUGH price as to what to expect please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Shoulder mount? £4-600 I would have thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 ...and don't keep us in suspense, let us know how much it was and show us a picture of the finished mount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesley121 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 What was you expecting to pay mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Sounds like you agreed this with the estate were it was shot? How much? well they usually levy a trophy fee on top of the shooting of the beast for a good animal that can be a fair amount only then do you get the set up costs- did you know about a fee for this part?. Be aware of all the costs before you decide to pull the trigger in future but who knows, there is no telling depends on who they used to set it up the best aint cheap but some are very reasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy 666 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Thank for all the help. As this was my first one I would pay what ever it cost as you can never get that first kill again. After all the help I have I decided to give them a call and I have just been told it will be £500. Thanks for all the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
