Boar mount

[bubba]

Here is the mount of the boar I got at Choppers place. Nice tusk (3.5 ")

I like the character, torn ear, white hair underneath and down center of head...

Can't wait to head back this fall...

That is awesome. Good luck on your next hunt there.

Nice pics bubba. Looks like they did a good job on your mount. I hope you have a good place to mount it.

Fighting the wife on it. She says garage, I say over the fireplace in my pool room. It might have to go to my dads bar until this is worked out...

The mount looks awesome Jesse !!! I know the feeling of fighting with the wife over these kind of things

Luckily she likes the euro mount of the boar I got that weekend. Would be a different story though if it were a shoulder mount

Nice Mount. Yeah, sounds a lot like my wife. My office won't be big enough for my elk mount if/when I finally get one done.

Looks Real Nice Jesse,
And I agree with you...over the fireplace is a fittin' place to display it...I got my Boar Javelina over my fireplace in "MY" den, along with some other assorted mounts and a whole "World" of sports memorabilia...and it looks so-o good there, just may have to leave it if I ever was to move! Naw, just kiddin'...but when Midbrook gets his 380+ Bull (and he WILL get it) we'll get it in his office if I gotta use a shoehorn and a come-along!

We've got a spiral staircase. I had envisioned painting a mural of natural habitat with a partially blue sky ceiling/upper walls and having a flock of ducks cupped and landing (suspended by fishing line) in the spiral well.

Of course, I thought this would have been awesome.....But, it was a good counter-balance to "no mounts in this house" so I got the greenlight on turning the office into a trophy room over the coming years.

Now I realize that if we ever sell off our house and rental to build something else such as a retirement home, there'll need to be approval for a "game room" before any ground is broken...

That things HUGE!! Can I go hunt there?

 

[bubba]

Sure you can BT.

As a matter of fact I might be able to get you a discount...

Anyways guys. When I was there, I seen some huge tusk from a previous kill. Made mine look small.

I think it's time to start planning another JHO group hunt!

 

[bighorn67]

I would love another group hunt out there, but after a new truck AND car for my wife, I'll be scraping the bottom of the barrell for the funds. Jesse, when were you planning on heading back up there?

[BDB]

Sounds like a plan to me but I would be out until January, maybe Dec but that's a stretch.

Great looking pig Bubba. I think you should put your foot down with the wife and tell her where you are putting it.

JK Don't tell her I said that...

bubba - great hog, stand your ground!! above the fireplace is a great place

 

[Orso]

Awesome hog. I love it.

I am ready for a hunt at Choppers. First of Dec would be best but, would try to work whatever dates come up.
