LBH thank you for the kind words, Sir! We vneed to get together! MD58 most of the current 50+ mounts were done by my good friend and Master Taxidermist Sam Raby. Sam left us last September. He is missed every day... we co-developed some of the forms together. He was a true gentle giant, except...

Thank you Ranger1... the Euro has its benefits. My sons NV DBH mount has its' also...

LBH thank you for all your assistance and great info! Results rarely match expectations, and there is NO substitute for boots on the ground. The overall experience, though tough, was overall very satisfying. The interaction with friends, new and old, the laughs, drama, were priceless. I want to...

Cost separate base from Euro. Euro cost $200 with dermestids, degrease, dry... apologies for confusion. Total all in Euro and base <$295... Glad you like it!

Thanks all! I had it in my mind to do this type of mount, if I was able to take one. I'm out of room for mounts with over 50 from all members of the family. Plus I really like the ability to pick up the head and marvel at the weight these wonderful creatures carry every day!

MD58 that is possibly one desirable result, but in general my observations were their herd estimates were/are mythical. We had up to 11 very capable guys/gals who covered more of each mountain range, with the exception of one no go area. We counted all sheep, trying not to double count any, and...

Eyeman, it is a Table hooker from Skull Hooker. You must ASK for the Sheep Prong. It is bigger than the standard prong - wider and a bit deeper. I mounted it to a 1.18 inch Marble sink cutout. Usually available at most granite installers. Mine was from a sink we did many years ago, Marble is...

G'day all. In case you missed it I thought I would update the hunt I drew last year for my Desert Bighorn. The unit I drew in 2023 was way over subscribed by way of NV authorized tag allocation. I was told by the senior biologist there were around 700 animals in population in the 2 distinct...

Homer, back when I did it we counted 200-250 deer in one night. Result 4-5 tags per year, every year. It was amazing what the desert can produce when it is able to thrive... Mountains, foothills, lush fields with water equal wildlife... today the number of tags (all sources) far outstrips the...

Key word is CROP. I think the minimum wS 160 ACRES OF CROP land, i.e. under production. Think Alfalfa in NV. You can look up under Crop Depredation/Compensation NV.

That is how landowners receive their LO tags which they then resell to the public for big bucks. It's been going on since 1990 at least. I used to help the field count, done at night with a spotlight. Total the number counted, divide by 50. You get one tag per 50 critters. This was for deer and...
