Mike-
To be honest, I never measured. I'm a trophy hunter but not an anal one. Fact is I don't even belong to SCI, though I will join because of the Eland.

HankB's got a good eye. That Eland measures out at the #2 ever taken...possibly #1, as the PH's intend to have the current record certified. I'll join SCI in fairness to the PH's, as it gives them some good press.

The mounts will probably take 6-8 months...they're being done in RSA. Yup, rug for the hide. Shoulder mount on that buff. The second will be a Euro mounted shotgun rack and the horns from the third will be used for wall hooks.
