I suppose it could be seen as overly aggressive. If it was taken that way, I do apologize.
But again it was my opinion.
And we've all got opinions, but... I still fail to see how hanging a trophy on the wall makes me a better hunter, shows more respect for the animal, or makes my hunt better than the fellow who elects to simply take some photos... Or maybe takes home one or two skull mounts and a flat skin, rather than a museum full of taxidermy mounts.
The actual physical trophy on the wall means very little more to me than does a photo on the wall - often the photo means more as it probably has me, as well as my sons, my father, or my friends with whom I shared the hunt.
Ah well. Different opinions.
As some have stated, there is almost no more room in my home for more "stuff" hanging on the walls. I've taken to giving away trophies in recent years. Not that I had anything all that splendid I suppose anyway.
Always a learning experience here at The Fire.
Feel free to completely disregard my opinion as I've not yet hunted Africa.
Regards, Guy
