retreeverbull ele ivory
Saw my first up close ivory from my visit to a local taxidermist..He said, " Mike stick around I want to show you something..." He opened the crate and I saw fresh Botswana ivory about 5.5 feet and a little more long..Before he told me I took a guess at weight...
55lbs....they were 65 and 64 They were going to be mounted on the front feet for a doorway...
I left smiling and dreaming...

bulldog563A set of Ivory is pretty impressive no matter how many you have seen. The first time is magical though. Kind of like the first time you see your first bull Ele in the wild. Great experience.
