To the OP: Sorry to say this, but you're in trouble. I mean, serious trouble.

When the missus sees all of these, your spot in the dog house will be permanently reserved.

Congratulations on the beautiful pieces. You have earned your place amongst hunters!

Fantastic mounts and wholehearted agree you be in some deep chit when the misses finds out. Might as well do like I did and name your man cave the dog house cuze probably be spending a lot of time in it so make it comfortable

This isn't the best picture of the mounts but, I like the way it turned out.

The wall height is 12' the ceiling height is 17'.

Your man-cave is gonna be a lot cooler (and bigger) than mine. Your trophies are a lot more impressive and those life-sized mounts are going to be focal points for sure. I banged together some log furniture for mine. I have no building skills, so it was a bit of an adventure, but a fun COVID project for my boys and me.
And we love our pool table. Mamma says no bar (yet... maybe when the youngest goes off to college...

)

People ask me why I spend so much money on taxidermy and not more hunts. It is a good question. For some it is better to do more hunts and just keep antlers (or nothing) and I don't discount that. Every time I see my mounts, I am reminded of the hunt and time with family and friends. So it is kinda like I am back on those hunts everyday - and for me that is worth sacrificing a hunt or two. Framed photos are great, but standing next to a cape buffalo, or looking up at the majesty and elegance of the bull elk on my wall just makes it that much more real.
