help me plan my pedestal

predator · Oct 1, 2011

Ok, you experts. I have 7-10 ceilings, which means my bull cannot be mounted on your standard pedestal, in fact, I only have about 24 inches to play with.

I am thinking of having him placed on a large stump, oblong in shape, perhaps like something old growth? Anyone have a starting place for me to find such a thing? Idealistically, I think it would be cool to have it seriously just the stump, with the roots coming off (or the base, if you gather what I mean).

Love to see examples of other ideas; this is the beginning of my 'Elk Room' LOL!

Pred,
How about something close to this, just a thought.

Kilo, that is a great trio o' antelope, my friend! I don't know that a trunk like that would do it. I'm thinking more like a cypress table top......I want something special for a special bull.

Lisa,
Those are not my Antelope Trio and not even sure who the lady is but someone sent this pic to me before when I was thinking of going with a Pedestal mount on 2 of my Lopes. I believe this lady lives in AZ.

Good luck on your mounts.

Yeah, it's my photo from this thread: http://www.monstermuleys.info/dcforum/DCForumID47/152.html

The lady is Cindi Richardson. She was the first person to kill the AZ Big 10 with a bow.

Thanks, Tony, always cool to see the girls ROCK!

Kilo, you have me thinking about my own antelope trio now. I saw the neatest dead tree today; methinks I may have to pack in a chainsaw tomorrow......maybe I can throw it at a deer.

I really like the first bull in the previous reply. Similar to what I believe I need.

Here's a few that I've built for people. Might give you some ideas.

I'm looking to sell this pedestal. Let me know if you might be interested.

Nice, Elkster! I think in that last pic you might need more sheds??!!!

I actually found a real nice one muzzy hunting last week, mushy have to go back up with a chainsaw!
