Trophy Giraffe

Well, you guys can add me to the list of fellows who never thought he'd want to hunt giraffe...but now has to consider that his mind is a-changing!

Really special animals.

Some great animals and pics!!!!!! Congrates
 
Very nice trophy.
 
Nice animal....

Can't wait to hear how you will mount him. I'm gonna have to find some flat skins. I've never seen one and bet they are great.
 
Great pics!

When I head back to Namibia for my Leopard in 2015, a Giraffe is on the list.

Having one in the shop to mount changed my mind.

Yup, you just have to do it.
 
I'm planning to do some sort of free standing floor pedestal shoulder mount, maybe looking at or eating some leaves. I've got 9' ceilings in my rooms plus a two story den (open to the level above with a loft that overlooks the main floor) so I have plenty of room. I might even put him on the loft and have him looking down into the den.

I'm also going to put that African spot from the skin in a picture frame or something similar.

Also going to try to have a purse made for the wife. I'm sure you have all seen how popular those "fake" giraffe purses are these days. Well, my wife is going to get a real one.

Will take whatever is left from the back skin and do a rug. I will post pics when I get it back.
 
Full utilization of trophy, good thing.

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
