I was able this past season to get a bull small enough to fit in our modest, but humble, single wide! Picked up yesterday. ![[Linked Image]](http://i144.photobucket.com/albums/r174/lt13demi/IMG_4814.jpg)

I'm really good at getting small elk. You should have been hunting with me.

Thanks compadres! I've got a nice old Original fullstock percussion muzzleloader and Original powderhorn that I'm going to mount above the horns. Should spice it up a little!

Looks great. You always could turn it sideways and avoid the TV problem. Na, that wouldn't work either.

Good job. Yes, it's always the pits picking up those 380 bulls that won't fit in ones home. A lot of those in the garage in this town, but it's mostly because the little lady won't let them live in the house.

KW, it looks like that little point would fit right in that lever ring on that rifle and help hold it in place in case of a earthquake or something.

An unemployed Jester, is nobody's Fool.
the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

Ok! This is what I had in mind! Very nice! However; I feel that it would look better with the rifle and powder horn below, or perhaps with the Winchester and muzzle loader hanging crossed and diagonal below the racklike a crest of arms

Talking about 'big horns' reminds me of one from years ago. I was the office mgr for an LTL freight company. We have a taxidermist here who used us for all of his shipments. He called me one day and asked how high our trailers were inside. Seems he had a customer who'd shot an AK moose and he not only wanted a full body mount, but he wanted it with the front feet on a mount for more height. The thing would be 12' high. It would have to go on a lowboy that was no more than 24" high. The guy changed his mind and it ended up as a shoulder mount.
I don't think that one would have fit in Kaywoodie's house unless he raised the ceiling.

However; I feel that it would look better with the rifle and powder horn below, or perhaps with the Winchester and muzzle loader hanging crossed and diagonal below the racklike a crest of arms This^^^, or with the Winchester on the rack below the ML. Come on KW. Youre a Win man. Get with the program! What did you kill that bull with? Any bull for an old fart is a big bull.
