Huge Waterbuck and Bushbuck taken with Bahati safaris

I have no affiliation with Bahati, but these skins and horns were very well taken care of and we recieved them back in the USA in a reasonable amount of time. I would not hesitate to book a hunt with them.

Beautiful mounts, Jerry ... having great capes goes a long way in the process.

I cannot believe the amount of hair still left in the ears of that Waterbuck ... absolutely beautiful!

Very nicely done Jerry, and love the detail on the bushbuck.

I dont often complement taxidermy, but this is a good job. Who was the hunter as it could be a number of guys!

Thanks for the complement. Keep it up and you may just get an invite!

I like the bushbuck. A lot. Good expression.

Johan,
The hunter's initials are J E, he hunted with his Father, who shot some plains game also, and his mother enjoyed the trip as an observer. They took several other species including a very large Nyala, Suni, Red Duiker, Sable that I will post when we get them finished. They had many good things to say about your operation.

Gotcha. Thanks. It was a "just in time" Nyala too. Wonderful folks and we enjoyed their company too.

I am really curious to to see the rest when you're done!

Dale,
I wasn't the hunter, I just mounted them.

There are lots of Buffalo. The PH will take you up close, you decide what you like!

That waterbuck could not decide if he wanted to be a waterbuck, a lechwe, or a fringed eared oryx!

Great job on both mounts Jerry.
