I received the skull on time and boxed appropriately. My only area that I think needs improvement is the directions. The directions state go to the website. It took more time to find the correct video than to put the mount together. That is the only reason this product did not receive a 5-star rating.

Upon completion I had to make a couple adjustments, but that was stated to be expected in the video.

My wife changed her mind and allowed our son to decide if he wanted to keep his mount at home or send it out to the cabin at deer camp.

All I had was a skull capped rack. The cape belonging to him was lost due to freezer burn. I ordered this to complete a European mount as now that the cost of shoulder mounts are exorbitant. I cut the cap in half and then I used a hacksaw to remove the antlers from the pedicle. Using a bench grinder I smoothed out the bases as best as possible.
I dry run set up the skull and skull cap. The fit is not perfect but for the cost I wasn't expecting perfection. I used some dark walnut stain to add some distinction to this. Staining, letting it set up then wiping. Repeat as needed.
Once dry I used a 5/32 and then an 11/32 bit to run a pilot hole into the base of the antlers. Set the antlers, snug up the screws and adjust as needed. You can then tighten fully. Mount the cap to the skull.
There is a built in cut out to hang on the wall but personally I like the look of the skulls when they are angled not lying flat.
If this loads correctly the first 3 photos are of the Kit. I used a 1" drill bit to bore out where the brain stem would be for hanging. I use the mounts with the bent wings to support the skull properly.
The final photo is a real whitetail skull for reference.

The kit is well worth the cost in relation to other options. I usually do all my own Euro mounts and the time saved alone is priceless. This will not pass a trained eye as an authentic skull mount but as my deer was already skull capped this was the next best choice for me. I would purchase this again when needed. Recommend.
Edit* as par for the course the pics do load in order but it can be figured out.

Quick ship , nice quality

This was a great option for my step dad who didn't want to pay to mount his buck but wanted to keep the antlers. We got him this for Christmas last year and now he has it hanging in his bedroom and it looks GREAT!

Nothing. Great replica mount.
