If you have antlers on a skull plate, say from a typical plaque mount, is a taxidermist able to take a cape and make a shoulder mount from it? I'm assuming yes, since I've seen the big foam inserts they use, but just wanted to be sure.

Thats really great to know.. I have my first buck mounted on my gun rack, but I have dabbled in getting it shoulder mounted.

Re: Shoulder mount from skull plate?
Ive wondered the same. Maybe this is a dumb question but what cape do they use? You bring them one from a different buck or they supply from maybe keeping some that come through the shop?

Yes.
Just make sure that you use a cape from the same size and age class of deer that the rack is from.
