Great Trophy Room, Die Ou Jagter!
I`ve seen your "pygmy-mountain" before and I really like it. Have a klipspringer and damara dik-dik myself, so I might tune the mounts up a bit... Smiler
You have hunted quite a lot of different species! Great!

Why no one has mentioned the zebra mount is beyond me. That is the best, and I don't believe in hunting them. (I couldn't imagine an interesting trophy. Now I can.)

Kensco,

Mt zebra are the toughest hunt I have ever been on. There were tons of them on the ranch in Namibia and it took 3 days to have a decent shot.

I am married that is why the trophies are in my office and not home Frowner The walls are wood 3 feet up and the plaster is textured for effect. There is wood trim seperatin the walls from the ceiling. I try.

prairewolf, I have rearranged my office since these pictures were taken and as soon as I get my dig camera back from the shop I am going to take a new series of pictures and post them. My taxidermist call about 1/4 hr ago and is bringing my new Zebra mount this morning. So hopefully in a month or so I can show a new arrangement of the roon. Thanks for the interest.

Really nice, Ed. I am especially partial to the mountain lion mount. The only problem I see is the Office part. I am allergic to wORk (LOL).

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

kudu4u, almost 11'4". I do spend a good amount of time in my office, if I don't have time to get to the cabin 15min I can be in the office in 5. After 43 yrs of marriage we each do our own thing - it seems to work for us. thumb After my first safari to Africa for two wseeks I came home and she said NO MORE 2 week trips, so I went for 3 the next year. Nothing said since. Big Grin

That pygmy mountain is interesting. You should get a close up of it...not something you see everyday.

Sir, that is one outstanding office! Wonderfully presented, each and every one, and the groupings all "work" too! Very nicely done. If my office was anything like yours, I'd spend a lot more time in it and probably get much less done. Wink Thank you for giving us a look at it!
