How to Cape a Deer for a Shoulder Mount | Brian Anderson
Q: What is the main incision strategy after the dorsal cut?
Work from the top down, opening around the elbow and pulling tension to create clean, straight cuts along the center and back, then proceed to skin the legs and neck in sections to avoid tearing.
How to Cape a Deer for a Shoulder Mount | Brian Anderson
Q: How far back are you wanting people to cut it when they bring it in?
Cut roughly halfway between the front leg and the back leg to give a solid cape, then trim away extra cape later if needed; keep most of the work within practical boundaries and avoid removing unnecessary cape around the puzzle.
Red Deer Rut Tactics That Actually Work with Mick Cullen
Q: How close are you trying to get before you start calling?
The approach is to get as close as feasible through spot-and-stalk, using cover and dead ground to minimize detection; if close enough, calling becomes a backup option rather than the primary approach.
