Title: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Buckblaster on April 13, 2007, 08:00:48 AM: My trophy room includes 4 muleys, 2 whitetails, 1 elk, 1 desert bighorn sheep skull from AZ and numerous sheds. I'm always trying to upgrade each year by replacing the smaller ones with bigger ones.

Post by: boneaddict on April 20, 2007, 06:58:50 PM: My trophy room has been desicrated with a sewing machine. I think its time to threaten to put a mount in the bathroom. I love the commercial where there is a deer head hanging in the shower. :chuckle:

Cool rooms guys...

My dream room is actually a building with a bar in it and pool table, a big TV etc. Sort of like an entertaining room with a fireplace. I'd like to have my mounts and eventually my Dads hanging in there. Antlers everywhere, maybe a bar sign or two. I then imagine throwing end of the year hunting parties and inviting a bunch of hunt-washington folks. :brew:

Post by: Kent Hunter on April 24, 2007, 04:12:35 PM: Here is my room. The whitetails are from WA, ID and MT. The bears are from WA and B.C. The blacktail and the mulies are all from WA.

Post by: jackelope on April 24, 2007, 04:21:34 PM: i'll be there, bone...name the day and time.
my trophy room would just be a picture of my garage with some small antlers, some turkey feathers and a couple moose sheds...not much.
:'(
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: boneaddict on April 24, 2007, 04:47:08 PM: you had my sympathy jackelope until you mentioned moose sheds. :bash:
I chose to do PVC instead of heading up to Colville yesterday.

Cools room KH...whats the story behind ole one horn. I just about anchored a buck like that year before last until he turned and looked at me. I then got to watch him give a to a doe. His antler was broke off just above the base. Dang that had to hurt.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on April 25, 2007, 03:43:31 AM: Love the Deer with only one side of his rack. Whatis the story behind that. I have never had any one bring me a deer with only one side.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Kent Hunter on April 25, 2007, 02:32:16 PM: I was doing a drop camp in the Manson unit and I had shot the deer on the last day of the hunt. That unit is VERY steep and rugged. I had a difficult shot quatering away down hill and managed to shoot the antler off on my first shot. I dropped him with my second shot and then had to hurry to get him gutted and close enough to camp to get the horses to him when the packer showed up early the next morning to pack us out. I looked around for the antler for as long as I could. It was tough to look for as the buck rolled down hill approx 4 to 5 hundred yards after I dropped him. He measured 15 1/2 inches from the middle of his skull to the inside of his one remaining antler. This would have made him over 30 inches if I hadn't whacked his other antler. I just had to get him mounted. I'm not sorry that I did. He gives me lots of memories every time I look at him.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: boneaddict on April 25, 2007, 04:45:19 PM: He's a dandy for sure. Thanks for the story. I'd have mounted him for sure.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on April 25, 2007, 07:14:52 PM: Kent,

That is awsome. Lot of people don't know this but you can actually have sheds mounted. I fasten them to a cast skull plate and mount as normal.

One of these days I am going to mount a set of sheds. I am going to have a 2 1/2 - 3 foot floor pedestal made with a flat base on top. Going to put a little habitat on top and mount the deer with one horn on his head and one on the base below it. Like he just dropped it. The deer will be looking down at the shed.

I bought a set of 170" Mule Deer sheds and a set of 132" Columbia Blacktail Deer Sheds. I am probably going to use the blacktail sheds.

I am looking for a bigger set of Columbia Blacktail Sheds (matched set). Looking for 140 Class and up. Will also take a rack on the skull plate. Don't want a Bench leg!
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: boneaddict on April 25, 2007, 07:33:41 PM: I've had the same idea. Radically cool minds think alike. I've mounted a set of elk sheds and also a set of muley/ two point antlers that I have history with. When the finish work is done, we'll get some pictures. I stained the two point antlers and am EXTREMELY happpy with the job. You can't tell its not natural. I detest stained antlers.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Buckblaster on April 25, 2007, 08:58:00 PM: I've thought about having my matched set of moose sheds mounted on a skull for a euro mount. The local taxidermist says he can mount them without anyone noticing that they were mounted that way. It might look cool.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Michelle_Nelson on April 26, 2007, 03:39:38 AM: Buckblaster,

If your taxidermist is good than he can do it. The heavier the horns the more supposrt they need.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: boneaddict on April 26, 2007, 06:20:40 AM: The fake skulls they are coming out with are amazingly realistic. I've seen a couple deer and an elk, and they are quite impressive. If you are real creative you can have one moose done and have the antlers change out with the square pens inserted into them for removable antlers. I was going to do that with my extra shiras cape, but I ran out of steam. PLUS the trophy barn isn't done, and it was pretty hard to justify another full moose mount in my home. heheheheheheeeee
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: jackelope on April 26, 2007, 08:29:48 AM: blaster...if i could have found the other side to my bigger one, i would have done that in a heartbeat. that would be cool as could be.
there was a guy on MM that was selling repro skulls for deer and elk, but i never saw mention made of a moose skull, although i'm sure they are around.

Flaming liberal do-gooders.... second, (and here comes the friendly ribbing) Its a good thing Washington went to three point or better so you would quit shooting those two points. ;)

Wheres Mr Javelina?

Post by: boneaddict on June 05, 2007, 12:04:59 PM: Sure enough, I was thinking you had done a headmount. My bad. That was sure a fun hunt. I have that license this year, and was thinking about doing that again. That might be next years license though. hmmmm I'll have to research that.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
Post by: Fletch on June 05, 2007, 01:20:31 PM: YEAH you would need an 08 license...I put in one other time but the cost had gone up and the permits down and I didnt get drawn. We sure found a good place though!

Post by: BC CHASER on June 18, 2008, 07:46:19 PM: Well here is my dead animal room. The two deer closest to you are both whities. Shot in the exact same spot, the 4x4 was tooth aged at 11 1/2 and my first whitie 5x6 below him was shot on my first whitetail hunt ever I will give you guys the story later.He was 6 1/2 years old. All the ones in the middle are blackies. My 5x5 scores 126 p&y and the one next to him was a huge nt but broke off his inside mainbeam. He had 4 more points on it I will post a photo of him alive with it later. The one on the end is my dads 1st deer shot in 251 you can read a little bit more on him on the mission 251 thread. A few bears from around the house. A bobcat and coyote pelt. My 12 and 16 pt. free rangestags from N.Z. and my biggest bear to date. I also have a bunch of sheds all around the house and a skull collection. I have a speedgoat coming back and another toad mulie from my dad. And a 6.4lb largemouth that is a male. Maybe some day I will draw my bull tag. All critters except stags were shot here.

These include my three muley's, my sons little 4x4, my bear rug, lifesize, and shoulder mount, a raccoon rug, a whitetail mount, and my 94 blacktai two point. All were mounted by me except for the blacktail and the raccoon rug. Those were done by Fidalgo Taxidermy in Anacrtes. The river rock fireplace was done by a friend who is a masonry professional. He did the fire place and I mounted two blacktails and a mule deer for him.

My other bucks since then. Note the whopper 3 pt. in the bottom row. Last day of late buck back in 04 or 05. These are just filling space till I get a nice muley and a speedgoat to hang. Won't mount another Whity unless it's an absolute pig.

Bobcat rug. Want a full body but waiting for a big Tom. Also can't wait to get my bear back. It'll be a few months though.

I love the whitetail munching on the tree. I have a smaller whitetail rack that I was thinking about doing something interesting with... might steal your idea. Don't worry, I won't do it nearly as well as you did... :chuckle:

awesome rooms guys, I really like the decor. Some of you have a scary good fashion sense.... :rolleyes:

That's why I do my own taxidermy. Some stuff comes out a little rough, but at least I can afford it, and it's fun...

Post by: Dustin07 on March 25, 2009, 04:16:58 PM: I've been thinking a bit about doing my own taxidermy, but... I run a small business with my dad and we have about 15-25 employees. (depending on how busy we are). I am involved in 3 different non-profits which I work with on a monthly basis, and my wife and I are expecting our first child in May.......... I'm lacking spare time unfortunately :yike: but I'm working on a petition that I'm sending to God. When I get enough signatures I'm going to ask him to add a couple more hours to the day...

I'll sign it... :chuckle:
I know what you mean... I usually save my taxidermy projects for when the wife takes the boys to the grandparents in Tennessee. If you are going to give it a shot, I would start with non-waterfowl birds. They are much less labor intensive (or maybe I'm just doing it wrong :chuckle: ) and if you goof one up you won't slit your wrists..

Post by: Rob on April 23, 2009, 09:36:05 AM: Here is my current Trophy room. It is all going into a smaller room in the next month and that will become my North American room. This will make way for the African mounts! I have been waiting for them since Sept of 2007 so I am nearly rabid with anticipation! I'll post the photos when they are done. I have the work in progress photos of the African work, however the taxidermist requested I not post them on line as works in progress do not look good and he doesn't want that to represent the quality of his work.

Post by: bucklucky on May 05, 2009, 10:04:02 AM: I got my "Kit" through a company in Oregon. I cant recal the name at this second but it was 15,500.00 delivered, it has a 12 foot eve, 2 man doors, and 3 roll up doors (10x10) and a 2ft overhang. Roof insulation .It was Parker Building BTW. Now the concrete is another 3000 for just the mud and 1300 for labor unless I can find someone to do it cheaper.

Post by: whacker1 on May 05, 2009, 10:18:50 AM: If you are having a Pole building built - Now is a good time. lots of desperate contractors, and lumber is significantly cheaper than it has been for several years.
Title: Re: Let's see your trophy room
