All this squirrel talk has got me wondering. I have a BIG beautiful Fox Squirrel hanging around the house. And I've often thought of taking him to have a full body mount done on him. Now I hunt squirrels with a copper plated bb, and most times shoot for the chest. But its still a projectile and being as it is only .177 it still leaves a good hole depending on the angle. So my question is, If I decide to take him out and being it would be a full body mount (read all the hide used) What would be the best shot placement? How good are taxidermist at patching? I mean I have a few Deer mounts, but they don't have to use the area where the shot was placed on them.
