Impala are the most mounted african game, like a whitetail here in the states
This Impala has both ear tips missing , I does get cold in Africa and they can be frost bit and loose the tip of an ear, This one lost both tips, about an inch on both sides.
Details ARE IMPORTANT. Notice the eye set, the shape the clean lines , then the EAR SET and where they are on most mounts , Most are too low and on the neck, ears attach to the skull not the neck !!! Then Rebuilt soft tissue nose not dried up and shrank. Look at mounts with a microscope of the quality . Very little taxidermy IS Created equal.

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
