kudu4uGot all my pictures posted finally. Hope all enjoy. With pedestals and low hanging mounts this can be done nicely.

madabulaI have found that pedistal mounts work great with large animals,long horns or, antlers and 8' ceilings. I think it tends to make them more a part of the room instead of an intrusion into the room!

kudu4uFirst you stun me with the waterbuck then slay me with the kudu. I hunt with and use as a taxidermist Harry Whitehead in Lexington. Know him?

Fish30114madabula, that's either a very interesting painting above your TV or there is a Zebra sneaking up on your 5:00!

Thanks again! He's another of my favorites! (sort of like my kids which ever one is present or we are talking about it my favorite!)
I have known Harry for about 24 years! We taught each other all we know! Tell him I said hello! "Mike Ohlmann"
