I took my first trip to Africa in November 2016. My trophies have finally made it into Coppersmith’s hands in Chicago, over two years later! I never thought that I would have completed two additional safaris before I got my first set of trophies home. I should get billing and shipping information today and then they will be on the way to my house. Can’t wait!
 
Taking the trips is certainly the easy part. I hope they are what you expect when they arrive.
 
May I ask who did your taxidermy?

I used Capricorn taxidermy. They were the biggest part if the delay, but there were some documentation issues from the PH side as well. Once everything was sorted, there was a delay waiting for the SA government.

Ugh! This and the fact I have such a small space are why I am looking at only bringing home memories and photos in the future. I can almost go on a second hunt for what taxidermy, shipping, importation and deliveries cost. I can take the experience to my grave, but not the taxidermy. Just my thoughts as an old man.

I don’t disagree. I brought nothing home from my 2nd trip. Having a couple of flat skins done from the tried. I’m probably finished bringing trophies home. Except the next buffalo......
 
Two years....I would be jumping out of my skin. Totally unacceptable.
 
The crate arrived today!

Do you have any cull hunts available? 7 days, daily rate plus per animal price?
