Dall sheep cape

My daughter finds herself in need of a dall sheep shoulder mount cape!
I guess somewhere in all the handling between the hunt and the tanning, the hair is slipping badly on the neck.
Let me know if you have any options or connections for such an item. I've heard some prices floated around but ultimately it will be decided by the seller and buyer.
I suppose raw or recently (dry or wet) tanned would work.
Thanks for any input.

Go to Taxidermy.net then to the forums.. I did that last year when my cape came from Whitehorse a mess.. Look to pay around 900.00 for a tanned one.. Good Luck...

Sounds good! I'll check them out too.

I'm sure there are resident hunters who frequent this forum who shoot sheep and don't mount them and might have a spare cape... knowing that they are valuable.

Thanks!
