Trophy Room Build after 45 years of hunting

[JES Adventures]

What a stunning project. It's just fantastic. One question...did you also catch the fish in the displays?

Sadly, I did not catch those fish, the ate all replicas.

Amazing!!! Congratulations on such an incredible achievement! God bless you sir, you are one lucky individual. Thank you so much for sharing. Good luck with the recovery, and like others have said, make sure you stick to the PT and then some.

Congratulations once again!

May I ask how many trophies or animals this collection has? How many species?

Congratulations on your NA29, an absolutely amazing trophy room and some excellent memories.

I was wondering how the knees were doing, I remembered you mentioned them at the Trophy Hunters show and they were really sore the day we chatted. I definitely need to try and get by one of these days to see this in person and bring some cigars and whiskey for you recount your hunts over.

Well done John - I've very much enjoyed following along.

All the best with the medical matters.

Me: Hey babe, come check out this guy's amazing trophy room.
Wife: Grabs my computer, throws it on the ground, steps on it several times.
Me: It was just and idea.
Wife: ...

Seriously though, this might be the coolest thing I have ever seen.

I have a backlog of trophies at the taxidermist as I ran out of space many years ago so started tanning and freezing hides. It will probably be another year before we have worked through the list and have them added to the room. My current specie count is 235.

Look forward to having you down at the ranch.
