Just received all my trophies back from Reflections of the Wild taxidermy in Oakland, Maryland. These are from my first ever African trip in June of 2024. I am SUPER happy with them. Incredible work!

Awesome work and presentations! Cool beans!
 
Nice, why all pedestals?

I like the Kudu and the gnu.

I like floor pedestals much more than wall mounts. This way, my guests can actually put their hands on the horns, see what they feel like, look at them eye to eye. Much better experience. And what is a gnu?
 
Nice !
 
Exceptional hartebeest. Very tall rack. And the wildebeest has incredible thick bosses. How did it score? Beautiful kudu. Not a monster but in my opinion few of the +50" bulls have as pretty horns. Many have tight curls or goofy spread. Yours is just right. Congrats.

Gnu is the Dutch / Afrikaans word for wildebeest,

Blue gnu, white bearded gnu etc.

Surprised you never heard it while there

You have a good eye Sir. The Red Hartebeest is both SCI Gold and Rowland and Ward. The Blue Wildebeest is silver, having missed gold by 5/8 of an inch. And the Kudu does not even make bronze. But, as you say, he is beautiful.
 
That kudu mount is very nice!
 
Those are very nice. Christmas in March!
 
Those are all pieces of fine art.
+1. That is an interesting idea to use the hides.

Questions:

What are the dimensions of your "rug"?

What type of backing material was used?


LOL...Although...Just Thinking Out Loud.... that big brown spot that could be Cape Town location, probably could have been moved around in the general location of say..... Johannesburg.

Wildebeest is the Afrikaans word (wild beast). I always thought it was gnu in English, but apparently gnu is from a native Khoisan language.
