ive had mounts come back a lil rank at 1st too.. sometimes a dead smell lingering about like it didnt have enough dry time or something... but again im not one to go out and spend 30k for an elephant either.. but ill say this. if i had, id hv had the work done somewhere that has more experience and some sort of work guarantee for my purchased $30k trophy feet. on the other bs...i dont think anyone here is anti hunting or anti trophy but we all have our own ideas about whats ethical, moral, and just plain right as so called hunters/sportsman. to me, guys that go out and blow $20-$50k to kill animals that most of us normal hunters will never see is just maybe a lil sickening. is it legal, yes. is it unethical, no.. it just seems to me like a DISGUSTING use of $30k... some of us do good to pay for our lil $1500 deer leases, pay our bill, fill our tags and put a buck on the wall after a GOOD HARD EARNED HUNT without paying more than my kids college will cost for a set of friggin feet man... who am i or anyone to tell this guy what to kill if he can afford it, but to most of us normal funded fair chase type hunters, its just a bit much. i rode an elephant w my daughter at some park a while back and never once did i think, man my hunting dream is to go kill one of these with 5 african guides behind me w 444marlins incase i cant get it done, call it a "DANGEROUS GAME HUNT" then write a ck for $30k for the thrill because normal hunting just wasnt onenough for my billion dollar hunting budget/trophy room...sorry but i almost agree w some nay sayers on this....and i too am a true hunter/advocate. some things just seem grossly overkill

And honestly, you don't really need to hunt an elephant do you? ...and the trophy is feet. I mean, come on, really? He wasn't just going to hand over his feet via polite asking. Besides, I don't speak elephant, and low probability that it speaks "redneck". . Chupa This has got to be the post of the year! "..8 legged elephant..." is a close second.

I have hunted many species and elephant is my favorite. I never had much of an interest in hunting elephant until about my 8th trip to Africa. I took 3 on a trip to Zimbabwe in 2008.

It's an animal!!! Shoot it in the face, cut off his feet and go look for something else to kill!!! Note: If this post has offended anyone, pm me and I'll have my secretary send you a formal apology within the next 5 working days.
