Cape a Shoulder Mount
With a sharp knife, slit the hide circling the body behind the shoulder at approximately the midway
point of the rib cage behind the front legs. Slit the skin around the legs just above the knees. An
additional slit will be needed from the back of the leg and joining the body cut behind the legs.














Peel the skin forward up to the ears and jaw exposing the head/neck junction. Cut into the neck
approximately 5 inches down from this junction. Circle the neck, cutting down to the spinal column.
After this cut is complete, grasp the antler bases, and twist the head off the neck. This should allow
the hide to be rolled up and put in a freezer until transported to the taxidermist.

These cuts should allow ample hide for me to work with in mounting. Remember, I can cut off excess
hide, but I can't add what I don't have.

Note:
When field dressing a trophy to be mounted, don't cut into the brisket (chest) or neck area.

If blood gets on the hide to be mounted, wash it off with snow or water as soon as possible.

Avoid dragging the deer out of the woods with a rope. Place it on a sled, a rickshaw, or a
four-wheeler. The rope, rocks, or a broken branch from a deadfall can easily damage the fur or
puncture the hide. If you do need to drag it our with a rope, attach the rope to the base of the antlers
and drag your trophy carefully.
