I was able to take a good Steenbok in South Africa week before last. I would like to do him in a full mount. Could those of you that have done a full mount please provide some samples so I can tell my taxidermist what I want. Thanks..  | ||

Nice Steenbok 300magnum. Looks like he has good mass too. I would suggest you take a look at your Taxidermists supply catalogs. Several supply companies carry lifesize Steenbok forms and usually have a pic of one or more mounted examples. Another option is to look on the Internet under African Taxidermists. You should get a number of good mounts to view.

300magman Congrats on a very nice steenbuck! Good length AND horntips blunt with wear! A fine trophy indeed. It deserves some money spent on it for a full mount! Story about hunt? In good hunting. Andrew Mclaren Andrew McLaren Professional Hunter and Hunting Outfitter since 1974. http://www.mclarensafaris.com The home page to go to for custom planning of ethical and affordable hunting of plains game in South Africa! Enquire about any South African hunting directly from andrew@mclarensafaris.com After a few years of participation on forums, I have learned that: One can cure: Lack of knowledge – by instruction. Lack of skills – by practice. Lack of experience – by time doing it. One cannot cure: Stupidity – nothing helps! Anti hunting sentiments – nothing helps! Put-‘n-Take Outfitters – money rules! My very long ago ancestors needed and loved to eat meat. Today I still hunt! | |||

I don't have any close ups, but here is a group shot of my animals. Congrats on your steenbok.  Mink and Wall Tents don't go together. Especially when you are sleeping in the Wall Tent. DRSS .470 & .500 | |||

That's a very nice Steenbok! Here's a picture of a live Steenbok. Take a real good look at the nose. That's a detail that gets missed too often. (Waterbuck noses get abused frequently as well.)  BTW, Vapodog that's an excellent Duiker! | |||
