This is one of the bulls Wendell killed when he was in Kigosi, this was the trip where is contracted malaria. Should be some fond memories every time he looks at this mount.   Jerry Huffaker State, National and World Champion Taxidermist | ||

Nice buff. That one would probably be worth a little malaria. The color of the granite compliments the mount well. | |||

Jerry If you don't mind me asking, what are the dimensions of the pedestal H & W ?? Also what is the total height to the top of the horns? Trying to see if i have room for the same. Thanks | |||

That's one of the nicest pedestals I've seen Good attention to detail and actually finished nicely ie: sanded etc. Most pedestals are pretty rough looking. I know it's not about the pedestal but it's an integral part of the whole thing and should be nice. | |||

Jerry delivered it last week and it is stunning! It has become my favorite mount. You guys have no idea just how big it is. This guy takes up some room, but it is well worth it. Jerry is doing a second one for me, a Buffalo that I think it better than this one, same base, different pose. Possibly mirror image. Use them as huge bookends!  | |||

Jerry -- what kind of wood is that in the base? G OMG!-- my bow is "pull-push feed" - how dreadfully embarrasing!!!!! | |||
