Trophy Room Build after 45 years of hunting

[Fatback]

Absolutely spectacular. Congrats on having a place to re-live and remember so many adventures. Also looks like there will be plenty of room to add more memories as you make them. Best of luck with your knee surgery recovery. Thanks for sharing with all of us.

Looks fantastic John Ed. It has been a fun thread watching the entire process come together.

All the best in getting back on your feet and the recovery from surgery!

Love it all. I can feel the size of the space with the photo with the life size kudus, LDE, bongo, etc. Are you starting to enjoy it or is there more to do to get to final end of job?

 

[JES Adventures]

Certainly am enjoying it. Still have a pool and shuffleboard tables to add plus some art.

It’s a comfortable space and that is what I was hoping for.

Good luck with your knee. Do the PT and just a little extra. The next 6 months will to a large degree determine how well it will work for the rest of your life.
What a wonderful trophy room. I think virtually all of us on here envy you.....

Wishing you a fast recovery. Your accomplishments are tremendous, room is wow, amazing and grand. What a perfect space. Do see a tree branch on Africa pic that is "empty"? Another leopard perhaps?

Well done Sir.

Congratulations on your NA 29! I have no idea how you got around BC to get your moose with the need for knee replacement! The terrain I’ve seen in BC had two directions straight up and straight down! That’s extreme dedication!

Your room brings back fond memories of when I was a kid. Farm owner in southern Ontario that both my parents worked for and we lived on had a room similar. Every chance I got to "go to work with mum" was taken. I spent hrs, even days in the middle of their room looking, dreaming and seeing mounted all the animals that I dreamed of one day pursuing. This was noticed by the "Boss" as he gifted me his 22 rifle when his health deteriorated, still cherish it today.

It ignited a spark that I have till this day and for life. I certainly hope and truly believe yours is doing the same to many impressionable young hunters today.

Outstanding job.
