I do believe your Son is happy.    You can see his grin through the head net.  And he has a right to be.

The prices vary from $100-$135.The guys who mounted this one are on the high end butt the work they do speaks for its self.This is the second squirrel they mounted for us this year and they are by far the best mounts that I have.
Here's a pic of the other one.

Goodness that is a monster! Good thing you had a 20 ga. He probably would have ran over and attacked after being hit with a pellet rifle. lol Good shooting and nice mount.

Yeah, that one needed a 20 ga. A pellet gun would probaly just have made 'em mad. Instead you got a very happy kid. You both can be very proud of that hunt !!!!!!

And a great mounting job on both Squirrels.
