Have always wanted one mounted. His mom was hit by a car as was he. I got a copy of the accident report along with pics just in case anything ever comes up :wink:

I LOVE the setup for the deer heads and turkey fans. is that as easy to do as it appears?

It is very simple. Took me a few tries to get it how I like it, but it was very easy..

That computer set up is screwing up the whole room in my opinion. :?

I agree. Atleast come up with some of cypress desk or some good wood table/hutch combo.

Everything else looks great!

very nice. I like the way you have the turkey fans displayed. I have been trying to come up with a simple inexpensive way to hang them for display and that seems to be the ticket. nice duck mounts too.

looks good. a little advice on a computer desk. go and search out antique shops. your room is a bit more contemporary than mine. i kept a brick wall and had the concrete stained, giving it a look of anything from a cigar room to a billiards room......

but, you'd be surprised what an old, weathered, beat up desk will do to ADD to the room vs taking away.

room is going to always ALWAYS be an issue (even for pat and he's got a whole carriage house to work w/). given that, something i'm starting to look at his how to make the displays SMALLER w/out taking away from the mounts and also incorporating them into the furniture......ramsey has something at his unit at willow brake that i'm thinking about doing, but making it into a pub table...

and, i've got an idea for a coffee table/end table using ebony wood surrounded by mahogany w/ a few metal rods allowing for a squadron of birds......you'll get several birds and loose minimum room.

anyhow, just some ideas you may can use in the future.
