Finally got my Africa mounts back!
« on: May 28, 2012, 01:46:00 PM »
Well, after a 10 month wait, I finally got my mounts back from my second Africa hunt last summer. They look great and here are a few pics.

First is my "Africa Wall" in my living room:

     

Next is a close-up of my waterbuck:

     

And a close-up of the Red Hartebeest:

     

And lastly is the full body mount Duiker. I was really impressed with this one and think he is one of the best mounts I have. I put him on a shelf in my foyer and really like how that looks.

     

Amd a little closer look at him:

     

I know I have at least one more Africa trip in my system and have a pretty good bucket list of animals I still want to take. If that happens I may have to add on to my house as I am just about out of room in what I have now!

See y'all later,

Bisch

Wow, that looks great! You and Mark Johnson have me jealous with all that coolness in your houses! I didn't get a chance to meet or speak with you in Chester which is a shame but congrats on the high scores!

My small collection does not hold a candle to Mark's! Sorry i missed you at Chester too. I like to meet all the guys and gals off of the forums that I can and I seem to miss a few at every shoot.

Thanks guys!

Bisch,

What a collection brother!!! I just noticed the guinea fowl, that's too cool. I've always wanted to shoot a wart hog or two, maybe three. Do they eat the wart hogs? All of the other mounts are nice also. Thanks sharing and making us jealous, LOL...
