Got my skulls and dip and pack back home today. Can't wait to get these capes tanned and start mounting them up!

Congratulations! It's a great feeling, isn't it?
 
Happy Dance :) Happy Dance :)
 
Oh yeah !! :A Banana::A Banana:
 
Nice! Reminded me of the time when my create made it to me! Good times for sure! Enjoy doing your own taxidermy! You have plenty of work ahead. Congrats again!
 
Very nice!
 
Skulls look great. Look forward to seeing them in their next stages.
 
Very nice! Did you clear your own customs?
 
Rock n roll!
 
They look good!
 
Congrats! It is an exciting day for sure!

A couple of those skulls didn't fare too well...I'm was thinking of keeping my skulls as Euro mounts next year. That worries me a bit. That being said, blesbok are not the flashiest of animals over there, but I think they make a badass Euro!
 
Since they are in your hands now, I am guessing all of the worry/stress is over. I can imagine all of the what ifs? that you have been thinking about for many months!

Yessir

I was only supposed to get skull caps for mounting so they actually went to more trouble than needed
 
Ty In africa they never cut skull caps for mounting every skull is shipped fully intact.
 
Congrats on getting them home!
 
Glad to see you have them home. Share some pictures after you get them mounted up to.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
