CATS!!! Mounted this one for a buddy, it turned out o.k. Still not where I want to be with them.



Here is a remount of a nice deer killed in 79 on the Jeff. Walker Co. line. Coombs ped in a custom shadow box.

Eyes look good on the cat. That's usually where you see the most screw ups.

Cats are just really hard. That one looks good. Very cool shadow box.

Awesome job Charlie. That is one of the better looking cats I have seen. I really like the shadow box mount also.


It isn't necessary to see a good tackle...you can hear it.

Looks pretty good to me. They must be difficult cause I have seen more bad ones than good. I had two mounted several years ago by Lynn Hammock in Auburn. I got extremely lucky. Best looking cats I have ever seen.

That's who I learned from. He's one of the best.

What do you charge to do a cat like that. I've got one in my freezer I would like to get done. The only thing is its got a fist size hole in the right front shoulder. Think you could fix it?
