      Animal Mount Details

      They primarily work on big game and small game mammals, along with both skin and replica fish, and they do not mount birds.

      Available mount styles include deer shoulder and pedestal mounts, antler mounts on plaques, traditional fish skin mounts, replica fish, and custom habitat bases.

      They bring over 20 years of taxidermy experience, backed by more than 45 years as avid hunters and fishermen.

      Their passion for the outdoors and photography guides a focus on natural beauty, realism, and lifelike poses.


      Pricing & Turnaround

      Pricing is clearly structured by mount type, with fish generally at $15.00–$16.00 per inch (minimum $195.00), replica fish at $19.00 per inch, deer shoulder and whitetail/mule deer mounts at $625.00, pedestal deer mounts at $700.00, antler mounts on plaques at $100.00, and extra charges for driftwood, weeds, or custom habitat construction.

      They emphasize timely completion of mounts but do not publish specific turnaround times or seasonal schedules, so you should contact them directly to discuss timing.

      In addition to new deer and fish mounts, they offer restoration, rebuilding, and repainting of older mounts as well as custom habitat scenes with materials like driftwood and weeds.
