Nicely done. All too many taxidermists forego the use of a good photograph and miss the colors entirely.

BigB,
I have had the opportunity to see a few mounts in person and many impressive animals in pictures through this site and through books, but I really enjoy how you had this one done. Nice taste.

BigB,

That is one excellent looking Buffalo mount!

As the others have said it is very life like. With that plant over his right shoulder he looks like he stepping into the room. The pedistal is classy looking as well.

Regards,
Dave

Thanks, I do think it turned out nice.

It is 46 inches, shot 8 times 375 H&H and twice with a 470 to end it all. First shot made it stumle and fall but it kept trying to get up and she kept shooting it.

That's a nice looking head. Very well done. You can really see how big the buff is when you compare it with the size of the coach.
