Hopefully that helps some of you understand that I'm not just an idiot that had complete faith in Greg to do it all over again. But that's not all, at that point we also had such little faith that Greg could make things right so we decided to book another lion hunt with Randy Epperson and get another lion to have mounted by someone that had a track record of producing quality lion mounts. So my wife and I made the decision to go ahead and let Greg McBride try and fix it on his dime. There was to much risk that they would loose the hide and/or they would never be able to do the mount enough justice that they would want their name and good reputations attached to it. However, friendship aside, after the first mount I spoke with three different high quality taxidermists in Arizona and none of them wanted to touch the mount. I just want to clear up the question I seem to be hearing the most, which is if he did such a bad job the first time why would you take it back? Greg McBride at Trails End Wildlife Art was my friend for many years, so first off I was trying to be nice and not ruin a friendship. You sent the kids back in and those words were out of your mouth before the door was completely open." "Tim - That lion is an awesome mount, you had it preplanned to say you didn't like it. Here is a quote from an email I got from Greg just this morning regarding this very lion mount:
THIS LION IS EXACTLY HOW IT WAS DELIVERED TO ME LAST WEEK! I have been friends with Greg for years and even gone on several hunts with him and his daughters in Arizona and New Mexico. You may have known Greg for a long time and even worked for him, but you don't know me so please don't come on here and suggest that I am some how holding back details or messing with the mount to hurt Greg. Below are the pictures of his first attempt. This is actually his second attempt at the lion. This cat was delivered to me last week at my home in Prescott.
