It looks like it would be he toughest kind of mount to keep clean.
They do have to be taken down periodically to clear out spider webs , dust and such which all mounts collect.

As much as I appreciate the taxidermist's talent, it reminds of the rifle or scope ads we often see in magazines showing a hunter with a rack on his pack-frame. In my opinion such images reinforce the negative and incorrect stereotype that hunters are in it for the trophy and leave the meat behind.

So, this would be a better mount for the wall?

LOL! Definitely not better :)

While that pack mount really looks nice, if it hung on my wall I think I'd get tired or having to respond to every non-hunter who asks, "So you packed out the head and left the meat in the bush?"

I personally have never liked the kind of ad imagery like the one below. I think it sends the wring message.

But that could be said for any head mount....this mount tells more of a story about the hunt, shows pride in the sport.

I was going to say this same thing, any mount can show what they want it to show.

The pack mount at least shows mow much work it takes.

I have deer rack mounts, fish mounts, 1 euro deer mount I did up for my dad that I have not finished yet, turkey fans, an owl is on the way, going to mount a couple goat euro mounts from animals on our farm too, to me is shows pride and experiences, anything negative that someone wants to make about it is something that should bring up conversation rather than covering it up as if you feel shame in hunting and fishing.

Not much difference than fancy Turkey mounts..I use canned compressed air to blow it off once in a while. Not an issue.
