Price of Elk Mount
Just curious of what folks have paid for elk mounts? Share as much info as makes you comfortable.
I'm just doing a bit of homework while trying not to fall too deeply into the "wishful thinking" category.
Thanks in advance.

Bill MHello Reed,
I got my Bull Elk mount back about a month ago. The mount would have been $500, but being my good neighbor, he gave me a discount. Shoulder mount, nothing fancy (bugling, etc.), no wood plaque. I caped it out (he was out of town hunting), and cut/dried the skullcap, or it would have likely cost a little more.
I thought it was reasonable, and turned out very impressive. Makes even a med-large Whitetail look puny.

<Dice2>Your talking about a dollar range of $500 to $750 US money. All this depends on what you want done ot the mount, such as open mouth with tongue showing is extra cash.
