choosing a form to use for a head mount??

[huntingfreak_09]

I have a great problem to have but..not knowing what deer form do use for your head mount!!
but i have got it down to a semi-sneak left turn but dont know if i want the offset or normal?
imo i think the offset gives it a lil more character rather than standard semi-sneak...
give me your thoughts and opionons and post any mounts of deer you have in these positons or any in other nice poses so i can have refrance...and i like the Mckenzie forms by joe meder but again give me your thoughts...its my first deer mount so i like it to be exactly what i want it to be....n this is the buck im gettin mounted first with a bow!

Mine is a semi sneak to the left too, Im pretty sure mines normal, but Im really not sure, I dont think I told the guy.  I took alot of time to decide mine too, since it was my first mount as well.  I went into fleet farm and looked at all their mounts, did alot of looking online and then I looked at the ones the guy has done in his room.  Cant go wrong with the semi-sneak, very natural look!
I would go with the McKenzie, they are very nice!  The 6500 is nice if you want some options, or the 6000.  Both by Dennis Behn!  However, Joe Meder does some nice stuff too!  Its all personal perference!
All I can recommend to looking at alot of examples!  Here is a picture of mine again, I know its on the other thread, but just as a reference!
ONCE AGAIN, VERY NICE BUCK YOU GOT THERE   !!!  I know you will be pleased on how it turns out!

Oh, and you can check out these examples too!  I found them pretty useful

One more thing to think about is the Ears.  Forward, back, high and tight.

Great buck you got there.  I also got my first buck with a bow this past season.  One thing that may help you decide is to remember what he was doing and what he looked like when you saw him come in.  This way it will give you a little smile every time you look at it.  Also, if you have a specific spot you plan to display the mount, you might want to consider that when choseing a position.  Best of luck with the mount.

I have one done with the semi sneak looks alright. Just didnt like the taxidermists work that was done. I also got a wall pedistal that loos awesome but I found it was hard to hang to make it look good. I personally like what revolution taxidermy has to offer.
