Finished Rocky Bighorn Mount

[BigDaddyL]

LAST EDITED ON Apr-11-18 AT 11:42AM (MST)[p]Well, here is the finished "Rio", my Once-in-a-Lifetime Rocky Mountain Bighorn Ram that was harvested August of 2017. I would like to thank Majors Wildlife Studio in Las Cruces, NM for the fabulous job they did on my mount. Not only are they exceptional with the mounts they build, they are extremely customer friendly. If you are looking for an outstanding taxidermist, you should give them a call.

Wow it came awesome ! Thats a heck of a nice ram and they did a jam up job bringing it back to life !!! My dream right there ..

 

[BigDaddyL]

Thanks RioHuntNutt!

That's beautiful. For a full body mount like that, how did you go about caping it? That must have been a labor of love.

 

[live4muleys]

Looks great and a pretty quick turn around also.

Beautiful mount, congratulations to you??

LAST EDITED ON Apr-11-18 AT 03:24PM (MST)[p]Efnm- I just zipped him from the back of the head to the base of the tail and then worked from the rear forward. It did take some time, but I believe the results show it was worth it.

 

[efnm]

It certainly does! Thanks for the response. Now I know what to plan for when I draw a sheep tag when the draw comes out any stinking minute...

AWESOME mount! Congrats on a fantastic ram! I'm assuming that is your trophy room that your ram is sitting in? WOW

 

[JRABQ]

Wow! That is awesome!

 

[twdjr]

Congrats! That is a very awesome looking mount and display! You should be very proud of that.

Very fast turnaround on the mount.

We are lucky in NM to have some taxidermists that are true artists. Robert Major is one of them. Great Ram, and great work.

 

[STOMPER]

GOOD LORD!

Can you please post some close ups of the giant Barbary sheep in the back ground????

 

[BigDaddyL]

I wish it was my trophy room....that is Major's Wildlife Studio.

 

[NMBOWHNTR27]

All I gotta say is WOW! Congrats to you! Hopefully this year for me! ??

 

[Ltsheets]

Beautiful mount!!! Congrats again on a hunt of a lifetime!!

I believe that giant Barb is his show piece for Western Regional Taxidermy CHAMPIONSHIP here in Albuquerque next sat. We welcome everyone to come Check out the best taxidermy in the West at the Marriott on Louisiana and the freeway.

 

[live4muleys]

They had a good picture of your finished sheep at the NM Wild Sheep Banquet. Congrats again.

I went to that Taxidermy contest/meet/convention last weekend. I met Geno and learned a ton...like the hair wasn't slipping on the one side of that Barbary, that's the side he sleeps on so the rocks are always rubbing and its scar tissue where his horns always scratch.

 

[BigDaddyL]

Thanks, I appreciate it. I wished I was free to go but not this year.

Came out really nice. I can't wait for my turn in August!
