Interesting Buffalo Mount
Headed to the Selous in September. Two buffalo are on license, so I starting looking around for ideas on mounts. Since finding room for two shoulder mounts would be tough, thought about one shoulder mount and one European mount. But I saw this mount at a local Gander Mountain and it is sort of intriguing. A real space saver for sure and could be set on a shelve, a table, etc. Just wanted to share it.

Redhawk1I would rather have a European mount.
Shouldn't it be turned around.
Walker,
Absolutely correct, it is backwards.

sculptorI hate it. It is backwards, and it also looks poorly done to me. I would recommend you go with a full skull on a pedistal panel.

calgarychef1It's only been placed backwards on the case. I imagine it low on a table or such, in that case it wouldn't take much room and would look ok.

It appears that the "mounting plate" is on a pedestal connected to a "base plate" type of arrangement, mounted at an angle. In which case, I'm not sure it could be turned around.
I think the "taxidermist" just blew it.

shehuntzHave to agree with Coldbore on that.
Looks like the top plaque was screwed on back to front. Easy fix though.
