True Jeff but I'd peel it off for the mount. I'd shoot it, wouldn't mount it in velvet.

RE: Does velvet mean anything to you?
Chances of me seeing a buck in velvet here in Mn Sept.17th aren't real good but I do know of a few bucks that were shot with there velvet still on. I still wouldn't take one with velvet if he was a young small racked buck. My standards still wouldn't change. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to shoot a buck in velvet, it would go on the wall even if I was going to shoot a little guy.

RE: Does velvet mean anything to you?
A taxidermist friend of mine knows some method where they can duplicate the look of velvet on the antlers. The couple of racks that he has done it on looked just like velvet, but in my opinion it was alittle more gray in color than natural velvet.
