Cool!
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

Beautiful stuff to display, but I can't imagine anyone buying any. The whole point of trophy hunting is hunting successfully..not buying the trophy from someone else??

I talked to the owner, he said most of what is sold is for decorating restaurants and the like. My niece does some decorating and she told me this kind of stuff is really hot right now. She's hit me up a time or two about selling some of my stuff.

Are those grizzlie's? I love to take a closeup of me next one and post it to my FB account. Tell everyone how lucky I was to draw a Wyoming tag and bagged this brute. Then sit back and watch the anti's go into a hissy fit over it.
coffee spelled backwards is eeffoc. I don't give eeffoc until I have my morning coffee.

Cool place. Cute story. My BIL and SIL live on their family ranch in New Braunfels. Wendy wanted to get an interior designer to help decorate their hill country home.
James has a couple of really nice wt mounts he had up. She said whatever the designer says, go's. She figured she would say "take them down", which is what she wanted. The designer said, " No, that's the big thing these days", "gotta have the mounts. My brother in law still laughs about it.

My dad is building a cabin up by Gunnison right now. He bought a 6' elk chandelier and two smaller elk fixtures for the bathroom from them for the new place and from what he says the price really wasn't that bad. It looks like a place I could spend all day admiring.

He's correct, I thought pricing was pretty good too. I saw 175-185" Mule deer European mounts for $200-$250. The bigger Elk European mounts were $600-$750.
