Maniac Selling Out?

HunterHarry · Dec 29, 2003

In the post by stealthycat I see that Maniac must be selling some of his most famous antlers from the "Rainbows End" B&B especially the "Mundy" buck!
If you are here Maniac let us know what's up!
Anyone keeping track of the bidding?

I sold the small ones to make room for bigger ones.
No the Mundy buck is not for sale.
I just bought the best Booner of all for the collection.

Maniac I was up by your place last hunting season and my wife shot a nice buck up there and I was going to stop but my wife wanted to get home and she knew I would spend hours looking and talking. Does it cost to see those mounts? Next year I will be back up there.

You can see my new addition on the web site.
It ison the menu as Bovey Bighorn
Was the world record for several years.

Very Cool Maniac!
I have a reproduction of the Bovey Ram skull!
I am incorporating it into the habitat of a great bobcat I took.
I will pick it up at the SCI show in Reno.
One hell of a ram!

How much did they charge you for the replica?

HunterHarry · Jan 1, 2004

I picked it up from a taxidermist from www.taxidermy.net It had a very small blemish on one horn and if I remember correctly I paid about $300.00 for it.

Who did you buy it from?

HunterHarry · Jan 1, 2004

I, for the life of me can't remember the guy's name.
I think he was located in Co.
If you go to www,taxidermy.net and click on "Forums" then "for sale" and post an inquiry that you are looking for a "Bovey Replica" there is a good chance the guy will respond.
Mine was cheap because of the blemish,A first rate replica will cost about $1200.
I have seen replicas of the "Hansen Ram" and several other world class bighorns and they really look real.
You can get replicas of world record class Dall Rams from Knight's Taxidermy in Anchorage Ak. If you are interested in one of those.
Hope I was of some help.
