Getting rid of the ugly license plate bracket.

I'm probably making a mistake putting up pictures of a trophy room and will get blasted by those who don't like it. I dig hunting in Africa too. i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll161/chipbeck/LR3.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Consider yourself blasted. You came out a lot better than the animals did.

Spaceman,

That I did. You registered your thought in a gentlemanly manner however and you are welcome at my home any time you're in AZ. On the plus side, just about all of the money spent on game conservation and anti poaching efforts in Africa comes from sport hunters. Most people don't know that Safari Club International, like Ducks Unlimited, is the most active and effective organization protecting and preserving all African animals. Habitat destruction, grazing, population growth, and poaching are the threats to these amazing animals. Most of Africa is a poverty ridden mess that makes Mexico look like a model of civil efficiency. 90% of the big game there today would not exist without the hundreds of millions spent by safari companies working together with government game departments to manage, protect, and preserve them. And even if you don't hunt, it's nice to know they are out there. Cheers.

Thanks for the invite. I didn't want to kick off a battle over it; some of my best friends are hunters. But whatever gene there is that makes hunting appealing wasn't included in my set.
