Trophies arrived in Dallas June 21st and were cleared, were available for pickup 7/10, and I picked them up today.


The crate fit my pickup like it was made for it.


First peek into the crate.




Two Blesbok and two Springbok ewes skulls. When Pieter said he needed a shooter for some meat animals that were being donated to a charity I was happy to oblige. I did keep the skulls and skins.


Now I can see my Wildebeests.


And there is my Wartie.


Got the Springbok shield mount out.


The shoulder mounts.


The skull mounts.


The skins. There is two more Springbok skins and another Blesbok skin off camera.

More images.

What a nice array of memorable hunting trophies. That springbok and sheild arrangement is superb.

Thanks. Of all thing the Springbok was one of my primary goals for that hunt. With his small size I was afraid a shoulder mount would have been lost and I don't have the room for full mounts.

They look great, I like the Blue Wildebeest rugs also.

I should have had some flatskins done when I went to Namibia.

I really like the skins. Blue Wildebeest is one of the best.
