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

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
