Hi all,
in a couple of weeks I should be going on my first African safari for 20 days. A dream since I was 12 years old. I will be hunting impala, blesbuck, warthog, black wildebeest and if Diana is with us, greater Kudu and white blesbuck and black springbuck.
Some of these I will would like in a shoulder mount, (black springbuck, white blesbuck, kudu, impala) but the warthog, common blesbuck and black wildebeest will likely be an European skullmount of some sorts.
For the skins coming from the skullmounts, what would you advise I tell to the skinners, or how should they prepare the skins if my intention is to have a leatherworker produce some rugs/bags/various out of them?
Thanks a lot for your input!
