Taxidermy Show & Tell

Here are two trophies that will always be great memories for me. Both animals taken with rifle.

Antelope taken in Harding County, South Dakota
Muley taken in White River Nat'l Forest, Colorado

Please post photos of your taxidermy trophies, too. State whether taken with bow, rifle, shotgun, etc. Small game, upland game, waterfowl, fish, varmint photos welcomed!

Nice! I am not a good judge of Pronghorns, but that muley is a beast! I saw one in eastern Oregon a few years ago during rifle elk season that had such a big rack, I initially thought it was a elk. Unfortunatley, during rifle deer season, I shoot the first forked horn I see to put meat in the freezer.

This is my 2005 GA buck. I shot him at 10 yards with a Browning A-bolt .308. I was walking back to the truck after missing a doe and decided to walk one last firebreak and there he was. I jumped him and he took a few steps and looked back but it was too late. He's my biggest buck to date but archery season begins in 28 days and hopefully he will have a bigger buck to keep him company.

And this is my quail lamp that is now in my office.
