Good luck with that bear. Going to try the same on the Kamchatka in the spring.

Thanks Joe. I've certainly got high hopes and great expectations. And good luck to you!
 
Bears from my spring 2016 British Columbia hunt. They have been home for quite a while but don't remember if I shared here. They have been petted a few times by visiting kids;)
And that is exactly what they should be for. I have never told a child not to touch. Yes, it gets whatever is on their grubby little hands on my mounts. But if a child want to touch an animal, handle a skull, or poke an eye, as long as it is not mine, I am cool with it. How else do we get kids interested. I take that back. My 25 year old nephew still reminds me about the time when he was 6 or 7 that he pulled the tongue out of my bear skin rug. I did loose both barrels on him. Sorry Brian
 
Good luck on the bear hunt Bob, kill a Brutus Bruin Brother!

Thanks Brother I'll do my best... I can guarantee I will not be doing it wearing a loin cloth though so you slay a great old Dagga Boy with that double! We all want pictures of you in your wig and Tim in the loin cloth... But perhaps you can savor the "Snappy" pictures privately:sick:

Robert with Wild Images In Motion did a fantastic job. He planned the whole layout and placement. He also helped out hanging and placing some of the mounts I had done in South Africa by Relive. Robert did the base for the buffalo's.

Thanks! They are better than the pictures show. Detail is outstanding. Really happy to have gotten such a great Leopard out of Mozambique and in such great condition. Simon's crew did a great job on that skin. The whiskers are even perfect;)

Did you notice the duiker? Robert went all out on the authenticity of that:)
 
WOW, that leopard mount is kick a$$. What a beauty!!!!!
 
Good luck on your grizzly hunt, shot mine up in the Brooks range. The big bear hunts are IMO unbeatable in North America.
 
Thanks everyone for the compliments and well wishes. I'm sitting in my hotel in Anchorage doing some last minute business waiting until it's time for my flight into bush;)

The whole city is inundated with smoke from the fires. Apparently it has been real dry. Flew in through a smoke cloud so thick we couldn't see the wing tips.

Weather looks great right now in my hunting area. Going in very optimistic;)

Some more professional pictures. Robert actually set up in one of my machine sheds to have space and dark;)

He went through some phenomenal work to get proper photos and of course on the mounts and trees.

He wants to do more of this high end stuff that will allow him to use his artistic abilities.

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!
To much to political shit, to little Africa :-)
Spending a few years hunting out west then back to Africa!

Hello. If you haven't already sold this rifle then I will purchase. Please advise. Thank you.

I doubt you are interested in any trades but I was getting ready to list a Sauer 404 3 barrel set in the 10-12 price range if your interested. It has the 404J, 30-06 and 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Only the 30-06 had been shot and it has 7 rounds through it as I was working on breaking the barrel in. It also has both the synthetic thumbhole stock and somewhere between grade 3-5 non thumbhole stock
