Thanks to all.....Everyone has amazing trophy memories, whether it is one or a hundred! My leopard from Namibia was a life-long dream of mine since I was about 10 years old, and I started reading Jim Corbett stories!!!.

Some great pics! I have my trophies spread out through the house and my barn man cave -
A few years back I went to a guys house - it was not a fancy or big house but every wall in every room had heads hanging. His KITCHEN WALLS had heads mounted all the way around! That is one tolerant wife right there!

I've put literally tons of meat in my freezer over the years but not that many "trophies." I have taken a few though that have made it to the wall: And the one and only animal taken on a paid hunt and my only Texas mount: To all the other posters - some beautiful looking mounts - nice work.

This is my view starting about 4:30 each day. Still amazing to me how often I take a gander there.

This is my view starting about 4:30 each day. Still amazing to me how often I take a gander there. Lots of very impressive displays but personally I don't get excited over all the Africa stuff. A couple good Whitetails and the memories that likely go with them is more my style. We used to always mount them on wood plaques like Hud but everyones getting away from that it seems. Hud, ones hanging higher than the other but im sure you know that. I guess ill try to dig out a pic of mine.

I once took a photo of 20 shoulder mounts taken from our lease. Kind of against a barn wall with 10 on top and 10 on bottom. It took two days to align them like I liked. Couldn't decide whether to line up the bottom of brisket or top of horns or what. Some were sneaks and others very upright and all in between. I finally lined up the top of their heads. That way the taller racked deer would appear taller etc. I can see in a home with other décor and multiple species you would probably want things offset, but for this photo it worked.
