Got my sable, and a few other critters, back from the taxidermist today. He did a super job on this big sable bull- they are truly magnificent creatures. Horn lengths are 41" and 40".
I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

Magnificent is right! Gorgeous trophy.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I really like the way he turned the head for optimal presentation of the horns.
Great job, a piece of art.
