I’m transporting my Ram from AK down south for holidays to show my buddies. After looking all over, I talked to SKB and we found the best for the job. It’s a little over kill, but worth it!

Very cool! Can I ask how you attached the horns to the skull? I know some guys use Bondo, but I'm hoping to find a way to make it so the horns can be removed with a little effort.

Only other way I’ve seen it done is to put the horns on all the way, then drill and pin them. You can do it on the backside with really small hardware that’s barely noticeable.

Thanks for the feedback. One of my buddys drilled holes in the back and used drywall screws, it looks pretty awful. I was thinking of maybe using trim screws. But I'd prefer something completely invisible.

Apologies to OP for hijacking your thread.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but why would the horns be removed in the first place?

Most folks remove the horns from the skull in order to remove all the tissue between the horns and skull. Theory being that if you don't remove it, eventually that remaining tissue in there will rot and stink to high heaven. On the other hand I've got several sets of sheep horns that haven't been removed from the skull and they don't stink, after 20+ years for some of them. But I live in a very dry climate.

Thanks for explaining that
