Just wondering if any one has made use of a buffalo tail and scrotum?

Pictures would be great as would be your thoughts!

Thanks

Tobacco pouch (some). My sunglasses fit nicely in one made for a pipe and fixings in separate, zippered parts that had to start with the old makende holder... Store-bought not big bore shot (at least not by me.)

Shoot a nilgai and tell 'em the bag came along with your spike!! dancing :-)

My taxidermist made "fly swatters" out of the buffalo tails from my first safari. They look pretty good on the wall.



He also made a "nut bowl" out of the scrotum of a big dagga boy I shot - it is quite the conversation piece!

Thanks for posting those pictures, I think their great and perhaps adds a little something extra to a trophy room.

I have a couple of tails turned into fly-whisks, done by the tracker; one wildebeest, one gemsbok. I wish I had thought of that for the buffalo tail!

I also have a buffalo scrotum done up similar to that picture. I have a handful of small mementos thrown into it: recovered bullets, a couple porcupine quills, a few assorted teeth (animal!), a couple monstrous thorns, etc. Always a conversation-starter.

Next to it on the shelf, we also have a small (4x4-inch) plastic-framed copy of an old Far Side cartoon: two dogs looking into a small glass jar with something floating inside. One dog is saying to the other "The vet let me keep them...they're my testicles!" Smiler
