elkfitterTrophy Mount Help
I'm trying to plan where to hang my PG mounts and could use some avg. shoulder mount measurements. Can anyone give me the avg. total height of these shoulders mounts.
Kudu 50" horns
Gemsbok 40" horns
Springbok
Impala
Blesbok
Blue Wildebeest
I understand that these # will vary with the form, etc., but it will give a general idea.
Thanks for all the help.

BNagelMy kudu mount sticks out from the wall about one yardstick. 48" horns touching the 8 ft' ceiling put the nose at abouteye level with his chest maybe two feet from the floor.

BlankAnimal species (with horn length in parenthsis). First measurement is height from top of horns down to brisket, second is how far it sticks out from the wall.
Each of these required a large form, or bigger.
Kudu (51.5") 65"/41" Upright pedestal
Gemsbok (37") 58/26 Upright RT
Springbok (16.5") 28/19 Upright LT
Hartebeest (25") 48/30 Upright RT
Impala (21.5") 41/21 Upright LT
Blesbok (17") 35/20 Upright RT
Blue WB (30") 32/27 Semi-sneak

bluefinNagle,
That's a beauty of a kudu you got. That boy has some mass.
