Under Construction Trophy Room

[Justbryan]

I am getting closer to getting my bunk room at Lake Fork, Texas completed. I have another room that is exactly this size through the side door that is only framed out. There is a lot of wiring left to complete plus shower and kitchen, but I am getting there. The two rooms are only 625 sq. ft. so I have limited space, but you can pack in a lot of animals if your ceilings are tall enough.

I will have a pool table/recreation room in the adjoining this trophy room. People always ask where I keep the big bass from Lake Fork. I will need to catch them first.

I still have a full body Tahr, Full Body Chamois, and shoulder mount on Rusa from New Zealand so getting the recreation room completed is a top priority. I have a 3rd trip to Africa coming up in August. I need to slow down!

I will post some pictures when I get the room completed. I will have a professional photographer to shoot the bunk house like I did for my main house. The photographer did a very neat walk-through interactive video of my lake house a few weeks ago. The walk through makes a great reference for insurance.

Looking good. Any favorite hunts among those in the photos? Love the red stag. I'm chasing them in Argentina this spring. Did you post a topic about your main house also?

No post on my main house. All the trophies are in the mancave/bunk house.

My favorite hunt is a tie between New Zealand Tahr and South Africa Limpopo Bushbuck. Only disappointment was the Bushbuck cape arrived at taxidermy in bad shape. Still may be my favorite hunt story.

I was hunting bushbuck in Limpopo when we spotted a bushbuck hiding in a bush, go figure. I took a shoot with my 300 WSM but hit a limb or maybe I missed. The next day we search for another bushbuck and finally we came across another bushbuck hidden behind a bush again but this time I waited for a clean shot. He stepped out of the cover and I made a good shot. As we approached the bushbuck my guide and I realized it was the same bushbuck in the same spot as the previous day, go figure.
