I hate hanging elk - would be easier to hang a 100 lbs of Jello. Haha!
Nice bull!

Tavis, Both bulls look great...and you have nice spots to hang them. That was a quick turn around on the mount.

Tavis, nice bull. Looking good up there on the wall. I'm glad it didn't fall on you and stab you while hanging it up. Given your history of hand to hand fighting with bulls it's a good thing, too.

Congrats on a great looking bull, Tavis! Enjoy it for years to come! Always an adventure hanging big critters up for sure. I wish we had videoed hanging my moose over the fireplace. I could have offset the cost of that hunt with the $10,000 we would have won on “Funniest Home Videos”! (would have had to edit it heavily)

Thanks, everyone!
Now, I just need a big moose to go between those two...
Although the wife told me we have run out of room to hang any more heads in the house. I told her that there was plenty of white space left for at least 4 or 5 more! :)

Great to finally meet you, Tavis! Fine bull. My big bull is bookended with a stud caribou, too, on my vaulted wall. Yours looks great. I need a big moose or sheep to go between mine too!

Still at my taxidermist in Texas. It’s life size and I really don’t have a place to put him yet. Need to finish the “man-cave” downstairs...

Looks great Tavis! Anyone else doing a mount, consider detachable antlers. Well worth the $ in my opinion.
From: MathewsMan

I tried to talk my dad into that- I would never own an elk or Moose without at least one side pegged for removal. That being said, my next home's game room will have double doors into it though.

This one has removable antlers or I don't think I could've gotten him up over the stairwell. Metal square "posts" insert into metal pockets and are angled perfectly. Impossible to tell they are removable. The taxi did an excellent job. I recommend this on larger mounts, as long as your taxidermist can do a good job.
