New Trophy Room Only 12 X 18 Feet

[Philip Glass]

I love reading about small trophy rooms. Here is mine. I just got back my animals from my second Safari and got them up. My office/trophy room is only 12 X 18 feet yet I got 7 animals including a large Cape Buffalo plus my Zebra rug in complete with my pictures. It can be done and yes I can still work in my office and notice the reloading area where I do all of mine without any problem. I place my powder loading on my office desk otherwise I just use the small corner table you see. All my reloading supplies are in the chest you see. My gun safe sits directly behind me. It all works and gives me great joy!

This is awesome and very helpful in planning my trophy setup for my office! Your trophies look awesome and you've definitely made my decision to wall pedestal my nyala a very easy decision.

Always here to help as so many on here help me!!!

@Rare Breed, do you mind sharing a frontal picture of your Nyala?

Looks really nice

Nice job but that first pic of impala and buff, they all looked skewed. Is that just the angle of the pic taken?

You have taken some exceptional trophies, and displayed them very nicely. You should be justifiably proud of both accomplishments..................FWB

Thank you everyone for all your kind words! All of you inspire me! Without all of you I would not have Africa!

I have a very small trophy room also. It's a work in progress. Still waiting on my Cape Buffalo Pedestal Mount , Nyala, Black Wildebeast and Zebra flat skin rug.

Nice office Rare Breed. Any space with a buff mount is awesome!

 

[CRowe]

I admit I’m not overly familiar with African animals yet, but that’s the prettiest buffalo mount I’ve ever seen.

@Rare Breed (or anyone):
How far out from the wall does the Cape Buff / Wall Pedestal mount stick out?
It "looks like" it's a good way to save some space, but hard to tell from a picture.

Guessing a typical buff shoulder mount protrudes ~3.5 feet?

2.8 to be exact which makes it work

STUNNING room!! I've never been to Africa, but I hope to be able to go someday before the world goes completely crazy!! Although it's almost there.. Thanks for sharing! I'd love to get a beautiful Sable Antelope, Kudu, and a few other species.
