A few of my trophies
I don't have a trophy room per se, and I don't have the budget to accomodate the taxidermy I'd like to have, but here are a few mounts that I do have, which may be of interest....

My first Stone Sheep...


My second Stone, and first dream come true....


A curio cabinet with a few skulls and my best whitetail to-date. The skull on the top is a Mt Goat. The skull in the middle is a baboon, which was given to me by Richard Powell after his trip to Namibia last year. The skull on the bottom (kinda hard to see) is a steinbok from my trip to RSA in 2002.


Finally, a couple of log rocking chairs with goat hides...


I also have a bear rug and a tanned bison hide on the floor, in what my fiance has finally conceded will become the "Carcass Room" as she calls it. My trophies from Africa are presently leaned against the wall in there. I have a zebra hide in for tanning, and plan to pick away at getting the rest mounted at a rate of about 1 a year.

Its not much, but its a start, eh?

Cheers,
Canuck

Canuck, those are awsome! One day I will go sheep hunting if I can get Africa out of my system.

Canuck,

remind me to have a look at those sheep again come September! As if I needed some encouragement to torture myself on the AB Rockies....ah, bighorn...

I'm drooling over that whitetail too!

Canuck,

Great trophies! That sheep is out of this world!!! How old was he and what did he measure?
One of my goals is to hunt Stone & Dall sheep......some day.

I like the rocking chairs to.

Regards,
Dave

I thought that first Sheep was awesome, until I scrolled down and saw the second one.

Wow.
