I also have a Texas javelina I could have added to the photo. No brown bear, hippo, crocodile, or male lion yet but I bet they are all huge.

Good luck this season and happy hunting to all, TheGrayRider a/k/a Tom.
 
Nice.



I'm also a fan of Euro-skulls.

Especially for animals where I already a larger shoulder mount.
 
Black bear, baboon, and white-tailed deer.




(I've got other several deer, including a mule deer)

The baboon is a "raw" skull.
 
I too am a fan of euros. Done well they are actually rather classy in my opinion. I have a fair number in my house. I do have a fair number of shoulder mounts and furs as well and I have probably another half dozen euros in my office.

Here’s some from home though.

My daughter’s first big game animal, an Arizona javelina, and an Alaska black bear i shot in Prince William sound.

I love euro mounts. I have way more of them than actual shoulder mounts. Great thread.
 
I have 30 African skulls on the wall and three more on the way. I regret not telling them to put the baboon I shot last month in the salt. He was a big old male. But they're a hassle to get through inspection. Also three nice muley buck skull mounts and two huge elk cap mounts. My house is small and I was out of wall space a long time ago.

Here is my first wild boar (first Wild Turkey to his left.) Also, my first ever whitetail. He was taken with a second hand, $100 crossbow. I have two kudu and an impala coming in April. I'll keep you posted. Love the thread!
 
I’m starting to get a few euros, baboon, bushpig, common reedbuck, and a javalina along with a feral hog and several whitetail. At onetime I had a nice black bear skull I killed in California but it was demolished in one of my moves.
 
I like to do a little woodwork with my European mounts. These are from Botswana 2023. Several more yet to come from SA hunt Sept/Oct 2025.

Fallow from New Zealand, with roe from Romania and muntjac from England peeking into the picture.

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
