It gets to be Real Money when talking dangerous game, but many of the plains game hunts seem quite reasonable. The big expenses seem to be travel, and getting the trophies back home. I've seen various methods of reducing that cost as well. What I liked was the approach a buddy of mine took; he simply had the heads done as European/skull mounts and a couple of skins done as "flats" or rugs for the floor. The skulls, the flats, and a bunch of great photos were all the trophies he needed - and it was a LOT less expensive than full blown taxidermy and the associated shipping costs.
FV - I might just look you up when I get a bit ahead here. Not this year though. My hunting & fishing money is pretty well tapped out!
Thanks for posting this opportunity.

Thanks for being a part of this site and filling some of us in on hunting Africa. I will make it there......it will just be a little while before I do.

That's pretty cool. :tup: I'm stretched pretty thin this year, or it would be a very tempting package. I've never hunted Africa, but am thinking my ancient .30-06 and I need to make a trip over there for plains game someday.

Yes Guy
30-06 is all you need, I hunt with one as well, a Musgrave.
I agree with you on the Eropean skull thing and done my last trophies like that, much cheaper.
