That would be cool!

Johnny, I'm in Gwinnett County, Lawrenceville. Dennis, you are the MASTER! Wow, your work is amazing!

Unique and cool MT!

Bill that looks great! Johnny that pedestal is off the charts! Wow....

My taxidermist is getting ready to start on my eland. Would like to see your mounts! Almost all I've seen have the ears forward....would like to see some other options to help decide. Thanks!

I had dreamed of taking a moose with my bow since I was a young boy shooting my recurve in the yard daily. My wife did her part by allowing me to book a British Columbia hunt for my 50th birthday. I was so blessed by being able to fulfill my dream!

Chris Fortner in Covington, Ga is my taxidermist. Thanks!

Starting to get some mounts back, love the memories that come with them! My son's Impala and waterbuck and my Impala. Still have a bushbuck, wildebeest and 2 eland to go. Can't wait to get back!

Wow, you guys rock! Thanks again, passing this along!

Rook, great info! Thanks so much! Thanks to everyone!

I did not do a write up and should have! I will take care of that. I would think in today's world the Internet is the primary source for hunters gathering information so advertising on sites like this one carries a lot of weight??? Probably better than traveling all the way here for a show...

I get that and this site will be one of my first recommendations for sure. Just seeing what all is out there as Africa is not my bailiwick. Thanks!

I've become good friends with the game manager of a South African Safari where I hunted in 2015. He runs an awesome outfit. He traveled to Austin, Texas last month for a Wildlife Expo (his first time to the U.S.) where he was hoping to meet potential clients and spread the word on his business...

Thank you!

Thanks for the kudos guys! Jody, I did not fill the tusks but will. I had not thought about them cracking. Thanks for the tip!

Finished up my skull mount. Tore apart an old pallet, reassembled and cut out an outline of Africa. This rascal had some dental issues. We thought the upper left tusk was broken off but it was stunted and grew on the inside of his mouth

Where exactly do you put the screws? At the back top of the lower jaw through the ball joint and up into the skull? Thanks!

I'm finished whitening my warthog skull and am ready to attach the halves and mount it on a homemade Skullhooker type mount. I've epoxied deer and hogs in the past but this one is much heavier. What do you guys use? Thanks!

The coins Tom has are beautiful but a little too expensive for me. Though not nearly as nice I found these on EBay for $3 or $4 apiece. I'll post pics later of how I incorporate them after I'm done.

Thanks Jody!

Tom, that's the coolest skull mount I've seen! Well done sir

I love it! Cool idea with the coins, thanks! Have a blessed day..

That looks great! Interested to hear more about the coin

I've cleaned and whitened my warthog skull and am looking for ideas on what to mount it on. I'm getting one eland mounted and my taxidermist is cleaning the other skull but I'll mount it. I make my own Skullhooker type mounts but never anything eland size. Would love to some skull mount pics and...

Well done!

I have gotten a response from my D&P Co. They explained the issue with young waterbuck horns and how the flaking was common. They also understood my disappointment and were nice enough to offer to pay for the extra expense of having the horns repaired by my taxidermist. I appreciate that and...

For those of you who have had flaking issues with waterbuck or other horns, what happened in the end? Was your taxidermist able to repair them to your satisfaction? Would love to see some pics. Thanks!

Beautiful!

Yes this was out of RSA. I'm holding off on the outfit name until I hear back from them and learn more. Thanks very much for the help and info! Have a blessed day! John

I just saw my Africa trophies that arrived at my taxidermist 6 months later. Several of the horns were overcooked and my waterbuck is basically ruined and will have to be rebuilt and painted. The ones that weren't overcooked have to be boiled some more as they have too much o in them still. I...

Wow guys, those are beautiful mounts! Thank you! Cool idea Bh! Anyone heard of a droop form? I see them in McKenzie for both animals but can't find a pic of one mounted to see how it looks

Trying to pick out forms, would love to see your pics. Please id the form if you can. Thanks!

I'm trying to decide between an eland semi sneak and a droop and a wildebeest semi sneak and a droop. I've seen the droop forms but would like to see an actual mount to help me decide. Thanks!

Dream. Have Faith.. Persevere ...

Jerome, Thank you for the great info!

My trophies should arrive soon. How do I go about getting one of them scored in Georgia? This would be SCI, right? Thanks!

How do you display back skins? I'm having the back skin on my blue wildebeest tanned. How are yours displayed? Would love to see some pics. Thanks!

Getting shoulder mounts on eland, bushbuck, waterbuck, wildebeest and impala.........will probably do wall peds on 2 of them. Which animals do you think make the best candidates for that type of mount? Thanks.

Anybody have one? Would love to see some pics. Thanks!

Beautiful mounts guys! Thanks.

I looked at Delta's FB page last night. Every comment on the ban on trophy shipments was kissing Delta's ass for the decision. It's amazing, though not surprising how ruthless many of those SOBs are. I'm guessing Delta is suppressing opposing views from hunters. My response never made it. I...

Beautiful mounts and y'all are a big help! Informative stuff on the mount itself Dennis! Thanks!

I know it's a matter of personal preference, but what do you think of pedestal wall mounts? I've never had one done but have seen a few I like. Anyone had one mounted and then wished they had gone with a traditional shoulder mount? Are there any pros and cons other than appearance? Are they more...

Great stuff Bivy! Thanks and I will follow your lead!
