Title: 2012 St Judes Hog Hunt.( HEAD IS HOME )
Post by: BrushWolf on August 15, 2013, 04:01:00 PM
I finally got to pick up my hog head from Dad. He does European mounts with beetles. This hog was taken on my St Judes hunt with Ray Hammond. Here are a few pics . Hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I have. By the way thanks again Ray.   (http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k592/jet26photos/100_2347.jpg)                                             (http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k592/jet26photos/100_2348.jpg)                          (http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k592/jet26photos/100_2365.jpg)                          (http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k592/jet26photos/100_2366.jpg)

I can tell you Dad is very picky with his beetle buisness. When I picked it up he told me there was a little place that he couldn't get to is liking. After I rolled it around a few times he showed it to me. I had to really look to see it. The spot is about the size of a nickel. I think it turned out perfect myself.

I am sure this old pig had a sore mouth. Four of its lower teeth have big cavities in them.

I should have took a pic before Dad whiten it. It is truly amazing how white he can get them. Its definitely an art in itself.
