Brian CDieter and Thomas are very personable and pleasant to deal with. I had the opportunity to tour their operation last June after my safari and was very impressed. My pedastal zebra went to the SCI convetion this Janurary it is a stunning mount. Still waiting for the rest of my trophies. My friend used them on a previous trip and his mounts are great. He had a problem with slippage on a Nyala and they have offered to redo the mount with a new cape free of charge. The mounts 30-40% cheaper done there as apposed to bringing them here and having them done.

PostDriverMy outfitter used Highveld for dip/pack and flatskin tanning for my 2002 safari. I was pleased with my contact with them. They also measured all my trophies for RW and SCI and faxed the forms to me.
One caution: if you don't like your horns treated with a flat black paint/stain/whatever during the dipping process, be sure to tell them NOT to darken them. I much prefer the horns left natural color.
