Trophy Giraffe

Well, you guys can add me to the list of fellows who never thought he'd want to hunt giraffe...but now has to consider that his mind is a-changing!

Really special animals.

Some great animals and pics!!!!!! Congrates
 
Very nice trophy.
 
Nice animal....

Can't wait to hear how you will mount him. I'm gonna have to find some flat skins. I've never seen one and bet they are great.
 
Great pics!

When I head back to Namibia for my Leopard in 2015, a Giraffe is on the list.

Having one in the shop to mount changed my mind.

Yup, you just have to do it.
 
I'm planning to do some sort of free standing floor pedestal shoulder mount, maybe looking at or eating some leaves. I've got 9' ceilings in my rooms plus a two story den (open to the level above with a loft that overlooks the main floor) so I have plenty of room. I might even put him on the loft and have him looking down into the den.

I'm also going to put that African spot from the skin in a picture frame or something similar.

Also going to try to have a purse made for the wife. I'm sure you have all seen how popular those "fake" giraffe purses are these days. Well, my wife is going to get a real one.

Will take whatever is left from the back skin and do a rug. I will post pics when I get it back.
 
Full utilization of trophy, good thing.

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.
