Just picked up my Gemsbok and Kudu from the taxidermist last week and thought you all might like to take a gander at them. I posted my Bushbuck and Eland back in April to show how good they turned out, well the taxidermist didn't disappoint again because these two turned out great. I designed and built the pedestal myself, for a novice it didn't turn out half bad. Enjoy!

Well Done!

Your taxidermist is a true artist. That kudu is stunning!!! And the oryx with the Africa map on it is pure genius!
 
great looking trophy's they will look good in your home
 
Your Trophy's look Great and not bad Cabinet work on the Pedistal either.
 
Beautiful Kudu...both are fantastic looking mounts and the pedestal's a great piece..very well done.
 
Great looking mounts. Just curious what was the length of your horns overall height of the trophy when on the pedestal, and the height of the pedestal.
Sorry for all the questions I have a 38" Gemsbok I will be fitting in a basement and wanted to see how yours measured out.
 
Beautiful! I love the pedestal mount and as someone else said, the map of Africa is a perfect compliment.
 
Very. very nice. I wish I had the room in my house for these type mounts, they make a striking presence.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
