I take it that is a bushbuck, steenbok and mountain reedbuck? I like the way the mounts are all turned and positioned, for me the grass is a little to high...just personal taste.

Thanks for posting!
 
Sorry, I was in a hurry. They are bushbuck, common duiker and steenbok.
 
they look great upton

Thanks, I'm feeling a little dumb right now, but I'm awefully tired, yes I can see it now that is definitely a common duiker.
 
Great specimens and you managed to get them to fit.
 
Nice mounts! Mine from my May 2013 hunt are being crated right now and should be home in the next month.
 
Fantastic looking mount. Congrats.
 
Great looking mounts. The taxidermy looks first rate.
I have to agree about the height of the grass but I really like the addition of the thorns, nice touch.
 
Very nice Upton! I agree with everyone else though about the grass. Hides that beautiful bushbuck.
 
Great looking mounts, i liked how they are arranged, grass is a little high, but nevertheless, still looks great!!!
 
They will eat the grass down eventually.....

Very nice piece!
 
Nice steenboc
 
Nice mounts and nice animals. Congrats.

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.
