The first is a black coyote I shot last year. It was a little knawed up on the back half so I decided to do just a pedestal mount. It turned out very nice.

The other is a nice big male, also shot last year. For those that have seen my videos, this coyote is the one on volume 3 that I howled in with my wife. It weighed over 45 pounds and had a white tip on its tail. I had it mounted as if were freshly killed and hung by a hind leg. The taxidemist did a fantastic job. I'm going to build a replica of an old corner post with old barbed wire and all, place it in the corner of my office and hang the coyote from it. You can hang this coyote in every direction and it looks extremely real. In fact the taxidermist had several people ask what he was planning on doing with the coyote as it was hanging in his shop drying. They had no idea it was already finished and was just drying.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Very nice Byron! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif A black coyote is tops on my "want" list of predator hunting. When is the next dvd comming out?
 
Very nice Byron........Thanks for the pictures as well as all you do as an ambassador for our sport /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif.
 
Those look great Byron. Have you seen many black coyotes like that before or are they very rare? One of the guys I group hunt with shot one close to that color but that was a first for the group in a long time...for that color anyways.
 
Definately a unique hanging mount Byron. You can do the fencepost/barbwire thing, but I think it looks just fine there with the Precious Moments. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Now it's time to get Lanna that coat made.

Great mounts...Tony
 
Very creative mount that hanging one. At first I wasn't sure I would like it, but then seeing the pic it is actually awesome and very real. I had to pop in my DVD to get the full appreciation.
 
Very nice mounts. The hangning fresh kill is a very interesting style of mount. I also like the black dog very well. But then again they are all trophys arent they. Couls you tell me more about the videos im new to the forum. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
 
Awesome dude! I've been wanting to do the hanging coyote for a couple of years. Just cant get the wife to agree to let me put it in the living room. Im running out of space as is. Im still waiting on my hide from the coyote we shot in canada to come back. If the tanning came out good, I might have to do something with it. Get that display done so I can try to sell the idea to the wife. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Thanks guys,

Moe,

They are fairly rare. I've seen thouasands os coyotes but only a few black ones. I've killed two and have three more on video. I compare it to the deal with black squirrels, few but far between. I also think it is more of an Eastern thing. Never seen a black coyote out West, but see guy from the East post a picture of one every know and then. Most people don't think of East Texas as the East but then again most people have never been to East Texas.

Tony,

Lana wants a bobcat coat first.

Jebadia,

They are probably refering to my videos. Click on the link at the bottom of my post, this will take you to my website.

Lance,

I'm out of room as well and have two more deer coming pretty soon.

I'll post a picture when I get the fence corner built and the coyote hung proper. Don't look for it any time soon though.

Thanks again,

Byron

Dang Byron, those are very nice.

My smokey grey colored coyote was kind of rough on the back so had to do a pedestal mount too. But, they look pretty nice.

I really like that hanging one. I've not even considered that style of mount. And, I like your fence display idea! Now I just have to figure out where to put the darned thing. After I get my javalina and walking bobcat back I will be pretty much out of room too... Gotta build a bigger house!
 
Byron,

Both mounts look great! Each for their own unique reason. We will be waiting to see the fence post mount idea, dang that post will be tall!
 
I've seen a lot of "dead" duck mounts like that, but that is the first coyote. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
 
hey I recognize that hat from somewhere. anyhow nice looking mounts and I have wanted to see what a coyote mounted in that manner looked like. oh also great videos when is the next one coming out.
 
Thanks guys,

BigBen,

I enjoyed my trip to PA. Thanks for the hat. My next video will be out late spring. Got some cool, never before seen stuff for it. This one is looking to be the best one yet.

I took the hanging coyote into my mother in laws house last night holding it by the back leg and ask "can I skin this coyote in the kitchen" she about fainted. Cool lady, she quickly caught on /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif.
