That nyala is outstanding, very good start on the spiral horns! The wildebeest looks like an old warrior.

The Nyala is maybe 29", and I think the waterbuck is 26", I'll have to wait until they are shipped back to my taxidermist.
What's the record on Nyala?

Paul,

They come bigger than 29" but yours has a classic shape, which is what you want, more important than length in my opinion. It would be difficult to improve on what you have.

Thanks Ann, I'm very pleased with the shape (and size) of the Nyala, too.

The picture of that nyala does not do it justice. It looked bigger and better in person.

Damn, that Nyala looks like my Nyala's twin brother. If so it would make him 29 1/2. Not too shabby. thumb
