I have a friend who had a bunch of mounts.........
Gave over 30 bull mounts to elk's clubs and others all over the country.......
You know what that giant sucking sound was?
All the thousands and thousands of bennies he flushed..........
He stills hunts.....worldwide. Says he will never mount another animal.
BTDT,
I seem to go through stages. Most all the mounts I have on my wall were done between 2000 and 2008. Probably won't do another one again no matter what. Most are upstairs at my house. Rarely go there now except to watch my grandson. Been thinking about selling them and downsizing.
I don't know how many of ya'll are old enough to remember when Cigarettes were advertised on TV. There used to be a particular commercial that hawked a certain brand of smoke. The line was ..........., they satisfy. Well to my way of thinking, if they satisfied, why would you need to smoke more than one. Seem that's the way it is with "stuff", even rifles. Never enough stuff. In fact, I'm often heard to say, I'm just one rifle away from being satisfied. Nice thing about rifles though, I usually acquire them at a price point at which I can sell for a profit and finance my adddiction. Lots of "stuff" don't work that way.
Best
GWB
