    Where? Taxidermy Namibia vs. SA vs. ship to US

    The shipping on dip and pack is high. I imagine shipping on a large crate with mounts will be crazy high if you had a giraffe shoulder mounted. Might not be so bad with euro.

    What trophy are you most proud of?

    Topography is everything. We don’t have cwd and it’s so thick that deer can hide anywhere. Much of our woods it’s very difficult to access between swamps, thickets, cutovers, etc. most rifle shots are 80 yards or closer. Very dense brush here.

    What trophy are you most proud of?

    Buckshot is highly capable out of the right choke. I put 15 pellets in a 25” circle at 40 yards with my gun. I have probably killed 50-60 deer with dogs and that’s a drop in the bucket compared to many people around here. Our deer season lasts 4.5 months. Use any weapon and all weapons...

    How many of you DON'T mount all your trophies?

    I got to build a place for all my animal mounts. I have around 25 African animals, 12 ducks and geese, 6 deer heads, some other stuff. Just getting started hunting out west this year and hope to get a mule deer or two. I would still mount my North American stuff. Africa will have to wait a...

    What trophy are you most proud of?

    For me it’s the deer I took in front of the dogs when I was 17 years old. The kill picture still hangs at the club 25 years later. Here he is up in the house, just took the pic. In SC, this is a once in a lifetime deer for the average Joe. Cool fact, the farmer was cutting cotton on the other...

    What are you getting done in the off season?

    I’m getting prepared year round. Our deer season starts Friday here in lowcountry of SC. That said I have to spread jap millet in my new duck hole. Put up a rifle stand behind the house. Corn a feeder. At lunch today I put out cameras. I have already sighted in my weapons. Also getting a...

    Ducks?

    I am going to throw out some Japanese millet next week on my swamp that’s just now mud flats being exposed. At this time of year that’s the best thing to plant according to my research. You can’t plant it in the water though from what I have seen. It can tolerate flood but the leaves need to...

    We bought some land

    No way I can let poisonous snakes go. I turkey hunt way too much. I go out of my way to kill them. I have around 5 venomous snake close encounters each year.

    1988 Land Cruiser

    Ridiculous we can’t just buy a new Land Cruiser diesel truck. $ 51,000 for a brand new one 4 door version if I were in Namibia. If we could have them here, I would buy one right now. Instead we have to buy sub par crap that are designed to last maybe 8 years if you baby it. Got a tacoma 2021...

    We bought some land

    It is very important to have your own tract of land. I too just bought a small tract (was family land that went to my cousin but borders my parents current property) anyway I already put up a deer stand and clearing a spot to plant for ducks. There is about 1000 acres of thick deer woods behind...
