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

That waterbuck is freakish!!!

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! Big Grin

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! Big Grin

Great job on both mounts Jerry.
