After a year and a half, the magic box finally arrived. Everything turned out to be in great shape, and Tina is overjoyed with her tabletop Steenbok. The big trick now is mounting my Waterbuck above the fireplace while she isn't looking. ;)

Happy Christmas in April! :)
 
My only possible regret is my Warthog. If I had it to do over again, a full body mount might have been a better choice.

BTW, I never knew the skulls were so thick and heavy on these guys! I can see a glancing blow from a rimfire bouncing right off.

Awesome warthog, congrats!
 
Always awesome when trophies make it home. Congrats. Looking forward to seeing them all in place.
 
Always an exciting day. I'm super curious about that furniture piece. What do you have going on there?

It's a pedestal for the Kudu. Here is a picture from the Karoo website of what the pedestal will look like

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
