Poll: how would you mount an ibex

[Reporchie]

I need opinions on the best way to mount a New Mexico ibex. Obviously still have to actually harvest one but I think I need to make a decision now rather than in the field when I’m standing over it. I did not put full body as an option because I’d have to buy a bigger house to put it in, but it’s a free country and you’re welcome to tell me otherwise.

Monster Muleys NM sub forum and msg NMPaul for a picture of Zach's Ibex. Beautiful full body mount.

Your Ibex tag is a once-in-a-lifetime tag, your house doesn't have to be. Full body mount. Yes, it's much easier to spend someone else's money.

How would I mount an Ibex?

That is an interesting question. From the rear?

Dinner and a few drinks ?

I’m glad I’m not the only one whose mind went down that path.

I've been struggling with this decision as well. My daughter took a 40" Billy on the youth hunt in December. I have the half mount cape in the freezer and euroed the skull in the meantime. Thinking I might just stick with the euro.

Full body mounts are pricey so went with a shoulder mount that would show off the curve of the horns. I think this position does it well.

I did a shoulder mount.
