The present invention is a kit and method of mounting a game animal that
allows for antlers or horns to be quickly added or interchanged to an
otherwise artificial mount. The method generally comprises the following
steps: measuring the game animal, taking at least one picture of the game
animal, caping the head, cutting the skull, boiling the skull cap,
selecting the form, cutting the skull cap to fit the selected form,
drilling holes in the skull cap, adding clay to the form, fitting the
skull plate to the form, placing screws through the holes in the skull
cap, covering the skull cap attached to the form with flaps from the
artificial hair, trimming the excess material from the flaps, tucking the
flaps around the antler or horn base, and bending the ears of the form to
the desired position. The above-described method creates an odorless
trophy that is durable, will remain intact for decades, and which has
more consistent, lifelike, and more realistic facial features. The method
is time efficient, inexpensive, and can be performed for game animals of
all species, sizes, and sexes.
