That is a great looking mount. Come to think of it, it may be my favorite sheep mount!

He does not look off balance, the weight distribution is believable.

Love how the two tone wood base compliments the color variation of the horns. The size and shape of the base is perfect. The rock looks very good.

Home run! tu2

Thanks. I think its that photo angle that is what makes him look a little off balance. I was really trying to make him look like he is moving with the steepness; so it is on a thin edge of being a little off balance.

Yeah he misread you statement. I have to say again, that might be the coolest sheep mount I've seen.

Congrats. It is beautiful. I am jealous as I doubt I will ever hunt stone sheep or harvest one. So congrats on a fine trophy and beautiful mount. Does not get any better than that.
