TaxidermyXTaxidermist in Craig, Colorado
Bullseye Taxidermy is a taxidermy studio located in Craig, Colorado, led by award-winning taxidermist Mark Zimmerman and operated as a family-run, full-time studio.
You can work with them for custom, highly detailed mounts that emphasize preserving hunting memories and American hunting heritage over high-volume production.
They focus on big game taxidermy and wild game processing for hunters in northwest Colorado and beyond.
The studio specializes in North American and foreign big game, including game heads and large life-size mounts, and does not handle birds or fish in-house.
They offer shoulder mounts, life-size mounts, European and panel mounts, rugs, and custom bases, pedestals, and dioramas.
Mark Zimmerman has over two decades of experience, trained at the Colorado Institute of Taxidermy in 2003, and continues his education through seminars and competitions.
They highlight lifelike, highly detailed work using quality materials and one of the best tanneries, with every mount personally completed by Mark.
Bullseye Taxidermy publishes clear 2023 wild game processing prices and positions taxidermy rates as reflecting high-quality custom work, requiring a 50% deposit at drop-off and encouraging you to contact them to discuss specific project costs.
They offer a 48-hour turnaround on European mounts and limit overall workload so general taxidermy pieces are not rushed, though no standard completion timeline is listed.
Additional services include custom habitat bases and dioramas, rugs, commercial display work, wild game processing, referrals to bird and fish specialists, and custom crating and delivery options for finished mounts.
Reviews describe the quality and realism of the mounts as top notch, highly detailed, and life-like, with extraordinary craftsmanship.
Customers report professional, attentive service and note that Mark asks the right questions and builds long-distance, repeat relationships.
Review feedback on turnaround is limited, and one reviewer raises a concern about meat processing yield, but overall sentiment toward the taxidermy work itself is strongly positive.
Bullseye Taxidermy is based in Craig, Colorado, serving hunters in northwest Colorado and clients from other states through shipping and delivery options.
You can contact the studio directly to discuss your hunt, review options for mounts or processing, confirm current pricing, and plan drop-off or shipping arrangements.
