It's not EXACTLY mine. Like "cats" I'm not able to figure out how to post my own pics, so I borrowed these. Everyone in Texas has a trophy room that looks so similar to this one, I didn't see any harm in showing ya'll KINDA what mine looks like.

You could always have the wife mounted with the lions. I'm thinking kind of a successfull hunt scene, on the lions part. Grizz

Don't worry trapntrav, he's got 'em. They might not show in these pics, but there there somewhere. The bear trophies are so numerous, he's got some rugs stashed under the bed.

My wife meet me at the door yesterday morning wearing nothing but a smile and holding 2 pieces of rope. She said "tie me up and you can do anything you want" so I did and I went hunting!

So Forrest, if that's not "exactly" your trophy room, can we be sure that it is "exactly" your wife who is making the demands here? And furthermore, at the Rambouillet show I didn't buy a single bit of hunting weaponery, accessories, clothes or book a single hunt. I did however buy about $700 of really good wine, which shows just how far I've sunk into the French lifestyle. My wife didn't mind! If I'd bought a nice chunk of Turkish Walnut (and boy there were some nice pieces) she would have thought I was crazy. I think you should have been here.

I have a photograph of my son taped to my computer taken in the entryway of Dan's house. In the photograph you see my 10 year old surrounded by a small pride of lions (three males and a female).
Dan is gracious enough to open his home to Houston Safari Club youth events and the look on the kids faces (let alone the adults) when they walk into his home and see his amazing collection of animals on display, is a thing of wonder.
It's true. When I first saw it I said to myself, "Gee Forrest has a trophy room just like mine, except the poor guy looks like he is a little low on guns."
Hey, wait, I think I saw my daughter's lost cat in there somewhere. Have you been roaming Poor Farm Ditch with your 22 again? Should we take the missing pet poster down at JMH? Bob
