Beware Of Wolfgang Schenk Taxidermy, Germany

Why was it not fleshed and turned out properly in the field??

I can only imagine the carnage if capes where sent from field in Africa in that condition even to the local taxidermist...disaster waiting to happen
 
Everything that I have always read about getting a good cape to the taxidermist begins in the field with proper handling. I have a few friends who have gone to Alaska for muskox hunts and they have had zero problems.
 
While there after everyone had shot their animals I recall the 2 guys from Spain insisted on expedited shipping, if I recall correctly the guide told them it could be done but would add a few thosand dollars to the cost since They would need to hire someone to deliver it to the Vet in the capital to clear it then get it on a plane to either Austria or Germany. He stated that was what he wanted. I never spoke to him why but now I know

At Kalahari Safari, the Small Things Are the Big Things
The thrill of the stalk. The stillness of the wait. The age-old rhythm of the hunt.
It’s not just about the size of the trophy. It’s about the stories that will be told for years.
We believe the memories are the true prize. The small things are the big things.
And we’re proud to offer a hunting experience that honours exactly that.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
