Very affordable. I had a lot of ammo wallets made and gave many away.

I will have that done here when it gets back, thanks for the tip

I hope to have a buff back skin in the next few months. Appreciate you sharing @Altitude sickness, that looks really good.

When they use your leather the products are much cheaper than the advertised price on the website

Good to know. I'm going to research that further. I like the look of those wingback chairs and wonder if there are options to provide hides for that.

Green Chile - Please let us know what you find out on furniture options as I would like to know the same. There is a place in Houston (where I am at) that I have some skins with to do gun cases, purses, notepad covers, etc... but they dont do furniture. Cheers

 

[Green Chile]

Will do. I sent an email asking questions about it. If anyone has more info or other favorite sources, please let us know.

Getting my trophies back just got one step closer. Zebra is done and crate packed. I can’t wait.

And oh ya, I’ve already booked my second trip to Africa. Working on my third as we speak

 

[Green Chile]

This is the way.

Looks good, I'm about to get a crate myself very soon.

I’m ready…… to go back

Where are you going next time?

I’m booked for Namibia for a free range plains game hunt in the 26. Trying to figure out Tanzania after that.

What a hunt!
I wholeheartedly congratulate!

Congrats on a great first hunt and some amazing trophies. What part of CT?

Not sure who you’re using on the taxidermy side in CT but you might want to look at Johnny with Its A Trophy Taxidermy in the Waterford area. He has a ton of experience with African animals and is a great guy. If I lived closer, he’d be doing some work for me.

Well I’ll be using Johnny in the future. Just dropped of an elk to have a euro mount done and we spoke about africa. He will do my buff the way I want it to be and make sure it’s exactly like my pictures .

Johnny is a good guy and will take care of you. I’ve thought about having him do a safari for me but it’s a little cost prohibitive even if my retired father drives it cross country. If I kill a good buck I want mounted on my CT property, I’ll have him mount it.

We took the evening off from hunting, but made sure to do a bit of drinking and fishing. I'm a terrible fisherman, but it was a lot of fun to relax for an evening.
