Got my mount back from my 2012 gator the other day. Ronald Brown with Living Images Taxidermy did another great job!

Great mount on a huge gator. We expect to get ours back mid-August. Really looking forward to seeing it.

Tell us the story about getting your alligator - size, zone where taken, all you want to share.

WOW, nice gator. what's something like that cost to mount? and what'd u do with rest of hide.

The gator in the post above is actually from Lake George FL. He was 12ft. 3in. and we estimated him around 700+lbs. My best GA gator to date is pictured below. He was 8ft. 9in. and was the first gator killed at the Evans County PFA during their first ever public open hunt in 2011. I usually focus on zones 7 and 8 in GA mainly because I have a friend in the area that runs commercial gator hunts.

Ronald is a friend of mine so I guess I will have to say that I get a "friend discount", but the shoulder mount cost me $450 and the fully body was around $1K. I left the remainder of the 12ft. hide with my friends in FL. I honestly didn't know what to do with such a large hide!
