Just about 4 months to the day my trophies arrived back in Texas as promised. Limcroma Safaris arranged for Universal Trophy to provide the raw prep of my European mounts and carefully crate and ship them home. I couldn’t be happier with the results! All the skulls are all intact and very clean and with just a little polish and wax the horns of all my animals look great.

I only do European mounts so my total “taxidermy bill†was about $35.00 to Van Dykes for 3 plaques and some time in the garage making the Impala plaque and Warthog stand from some left over oak from another project. There is nothing like the instant gratification of having the skulls on the wall so quick after the hunt.

These trophies are the result of my first African Safari. I can't wait to go back!

Excellent warthog! I like skull displays as well.

Fantastic and at a reasonable price. Glad you found a taxidermist willing to do the detail work. A four month turnaround is outstanding....

All look great. Is there something wrong with the kudu mount though? The nose looks a little "off."

Your warthog is a toad and I especially like the impala plaque.

Looks great. I really like the impala with the African shaped platform.

What a nice wartie and a great way to display it! The way the impala is displayed is also very good. Kind of getting the angle a shouldermount would give the horns.
