Anyone with experience good or bad with Collets taxidermy?
Met him at Denver ISE, and again at SCI. Was impressed with his show work and demeanor.
He has a shop in Zimbabwe and in South Africa.
I have a upcoming buffalo hunt in KZN this June. And am strongly considering him, but if anyone has input It would be helpful
Collets wildlife artistry.
 
I used Colletts (http://collettswildlifeartistry.com/) a few years ago. I had them tan the hides and then ship them and the skulls & horns to my taxidermist in the US. That all went well. I went by their shop in Bulawayo and met Steve. The shop was quite large and impressive.
 
There work looks really good to me. Some nice mounts and other products that is for sure.
 
Thanks Ruger,
Much appreciated
 
We have work being done in both locations. The prices are decent, we get regular communication from them and what we saw in the shop in Bulawayo was impressive. They sent progress pictures with the last update.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
