Animal Mount Details
They work on a wide range of big game and small game animals as well as birds.
Available mount styles include shoulder mounts, rugs, and bird mounts.
Dean has practiced taxidermy since childhood, and he and Darrol have operated All Phases Taxidermy in Billings since 1983, including collaborating with three world champion taxidermists on museum exhibits in 2001–2002.
Their work emphasizes lifelike appearance, careful attention to detail, and environment-oriented pieces tailored to each trophy.
Pricing & Turnaround
Pricing for standard mounts is not listed, but they note that replacement hides typically run around $100–$200 for deer or antelope and roughly double that for elk, and one reviewer praises their prices as part of the overall value.
As a three-person shop they complete roughly 30 to 100 mounts per season, with completion times that can range from several months up to about one to three years depending on workload and process steps, and one reviewer reports a 7‑month turnaround on a deer mount.
They also offer educational seminars and field-care guidance for hunters, provide museum and commercial display work, and can assist with careful packing and shipping using custom-built crates.
