Cheaper isn't always worse and expensive isn't always better. If you don't know anything about a taxidermist, go to his shop and look at the mounts in progress. Look at the eyes, mouth and how the antlers sit on the mount in particular, look at a picture of a live deer for reference, especially the eyes. I hate seeing a bug eyed deer mount. I see pictures of deer on here occasionally that IMHO shouldn't have been paid for. I have some mounts that were done in the late 70's that still look good, a guy named Ernie Render from Newton did a couple of them.
