After a long flight delay from Zurich due to FAA computer glitz in Atlanta and an incomplete paper works from Fish and Wildlife, We finally got to enjoy our trophy.
Here they are guys... enjoy!
Here's the Impala and Pumbaa at my home office. I have to find a spot for the Kudu. The friggin thing is huge!

DF,
Sweet! Especially dig your Zebra rugs and the Kudu. Pumba rocks too...
Now if I could just get the Hakuna Matata song outta my head...

DF, Looks like they did a really good job on the trophys. That KUDU is going to look good on the wall after you reinforce it. Might have to raise the roof also.  |

Thanks guys! The animals came out really good. Craig Pidduck of Bullseye Taxidermy in RSA did the work.

Fine trophies you have there. Your lucky they did a good job mounting them. My bros didn't turn out so well. _________________ Just because a small bullet will work, doesn't mean you have to use it. Overkill still ends up in the freezer! |
