Flatlander Report post Posted February 15, 2014 The taxidermist called and told the rug from my 2012 bear is ready. I can't wait to get this thing on the wall of the man cave. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ready2hunt Report post Posted February 16, 2014 That's a great bear rug! Is it the one in your avatar? I'm curious what the skull came in at if you don't mind sharing, I don't remember seeing the original post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeeden Report post Posted February 16, 2014 That's really nice! If I am ever lucky enough to tag a big bruin I hope it turns out just like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
out2hunt Report post Posted February 16, 2014 Very Nice Flatlander! Pics on the wall please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted February 16, 2014 Thanks guys. The skull was about 18 1/2" and AZGFD aged him at just 3 years. I was surprised as I thought he was a little older. As soon as I am able to get him home and on the wall I will post up some more pics. He's still up in Holbrook at Badlands taxidermy right now. Dustin and TC did a great job. Thanks for looking guys. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kidso Report post Posted February 16, 2014 Nice rug. I think I recall the original post where you tagged that boar while he was going for a swim in the middle of the day! Nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cramerhunts Report post Posted February 16, 2014 Rug looks awesome! Very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Here is a pic of him on the wall, one of him in the field and a couple of the rest of the man cave. I am totally happy with him. Dustin at Badlands and member couesaddiciton did a great job. And Kidso you are correct, I shot this bear while he was swimming in a small pool of water at the bottom of my favorite canyon. That was great day. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
