Got a call today that a package was gonna be delivered from Coppersmith. The guy says, "I'm 10 minutes away are you gonna be home?"

I said, "Bring it!"

Got the stuff uncrated and set up. Trophy Service in RSA did a great job on my stuff. I'm very impressed. I would definitely use them again.

Hey Leo...that one in the middle looks awful skinny !!

I've heard of 'skin and bones'...but that feller...well...he's just bones !! LOL :)

Awesome !!

Yeah I had to go with the euro-mount on the Eland. Eland are absolutely enormous animals! The euro-mount takes up as much space as a good sized whitetail shoulder mount! Absolutely the heaviest animal I've ever taken with bow and arrow.

Good looking mounts, Leo! i was wondering where you were going to put those. If i remember it is a little full of mounts at your place...:cool2:

I be getting my Atlantic Salmon back shortly. where to put it???

When you are out of wall space. Pedestal mounts are a wonderful thing. The mounts on the left and right are secured to the top of the dresser. I built stand for the eland skull and now it's sitting on top of the dresser instead of leaning on the wall. Here is the setup with the new stand.

Very nice Leo...only problem now is...you have me re-thinking shooting a Eland when I head that way the end of this month. That Eland euro mount looks good.

Eland make great Euro Mounts. I think the world record was taken in Namibia. This was the animal I felt I was absolutely the luckiest to get. Eland do not need to drink water! They can get all the water they need from the food they eat. They will drink but they don't have to. They are also notorious for only drinking at night when the moon is bright. You may or may not get a chance at one. Good luck!
