Default Pintail mount back from Advantage Taxidermy

Alex did a wonderful job on this bird! Amazing!







Thanx again to Alex and to all the AO members who pointed me to Advantage Taxidermy.

Where is advantage located at, and do they do as good a job on deer? My son has a deer he wants mounted and is 15, so he needs someone reasonably priced and wants someone who does a great job too.

Pixel, I seen alot of pintails this year. Early season and in plumage. Flocks of 15-20 birds with maybe 1 or 2 hens in it. There was days that I shot my limit of 4 and watch alot more come in to the deeks while I waited for other ducks to show. This was the only one tho that had the "pintail" and had to have it on the wall!

He's located in Edmonton and check the sponsor forums for pics as well as his web site. www.advantagetaxidermy.com

Why worry about wall space, get them mounted in a flying position and hang them from the ceiling
