Ive known a guy who has been pickling and fleshing deer capes for people for years . No oil . No tan . He mounts everything a size smaller to compensate for shrinkage . That’s his busyness . Tanning . I’m not sure if the taxidermist he tans for doesnt know better or just don’t care . I know someone has to have noticed that 20 incher is now 19 . I guess what I’m getting at is I can’t believe he’s still in busyness . Maybe I’m to obsessive about a good tan and I boggles my mind anyone would accept anything less . Your name is on every mount that goes out . It’s like poor mounts I gladly remount . But why didn’t they mount it right the first time ? I’m just amazed . Ok I’m done .

This is an arguement that’s been around for years. Though it makes for interesting conversation, there’s not a thing anyone can do about it. So,,, just go about your business and forget everyone else. He isn’t responsible for your bills, you are. Once you get that mindset, you’ll feel more at peace.

I’m new to the business, and it doesn’t seem right to me either. But like Mr. Page said all you can do is try to take care of your own business. And try not to let it get to you.
