-with pronghorn headgear not deer antlers (I realize Jackalopes started with deer antlers but I prefer the antelope version). Any insight as to a source of good mounts would be greatly appreciated.

I usually kill my own and have it mounted.

There's a taxidermist here in Cheyenne on Ridge Rd who might be able to help you out. He has a giant one on the roof of his building.

World renown taxidermy company. Remember the stuffed polar bear in the movie Roadhouse...they stuffed it. Know the 2 lions from Ghost In The Darkness...they stuffed the real ones the movie is about.
They were also involved in early aviation here in Colorado

I got the opportunity to work in their sales department for a while. It was a fun job...very different...but at the time it was very obvious that the only ones who would get promoted in the company were family.
I usually only see the antlered jackalope (deerious jacaloupious) while hunting eastern Colorado. If I make it up to Nebraska or South Dakota hunting this year I'll shoot you one of their cousins (pronghorn jacaloupious) and you can get it stuffed at the taxidermist of your choice.
Lots of people worry about snakes and wear leg gaiters for rattlers but I've found these viscous little jackalopes to do a number on my lower legs so I always wear muck boots to soften the attacks.
You know jakcalopes aren't real, right? Get something even better and actually real; a fur bearing trout.
