I tan my deer now, used DP for several years, still have deer mounted 15 years ago that look as good as the day they were mounted, still use DP on lifesize animals like coyote, fox, bobcat, etc. I have seen some mounts Sam Touchstone did 60 years ago that the hide is still perfect and he always used DP>

I also think it all depends on the taxidermist. I have seen a mount someone did with dp and it looks terrible, and then I go to someone elses house and there is one that is 12 years old and looks like new. If you do it right Dp is great. I think this one of those questions with no right answer. It's just what ever works for you.
