After seeing kudu cores on the Dining Room table of the Lodge we stayed in, I asked the Taxidermist to save mine.

I am looking for ideas, how have you displayed them, or seen them displayed? Pictures would be nice if you have them.
 
I have seen them used variously. Lamp stands was one. In,I think, Trophaendienst near the airport at Windhoek. They make nice displays when polished up.
 
I had a pair polished and they are laying on the kudu backskin on top of a short bookcase
 
resurrecting this old thread

thanks for the suggestions

keen to see other's ideas
 
Have always wanted to use one as a pedestal to mount another animal on-maybe an impala or something-
I also really like these clear display holders-

I found a nice kudu skeleton in 2019 and kept the horns. My taxidermist took the horns and turned them in to wall sconces that sit out side my trophy room. I got some carved ostr

Good afternoon,

I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.
