    Animal Mount Details

    They primarily work on big game, small game, birds, and predators, with an emphasis on European skull mounts and antler-focused displays.

    You can choose from standard European mounts, hydro-dipped finishes, antler-only wraps, multi-skull arrangements, and custom wall or pedestal display systems built from reclaimed materials.

    Greg has been cleaning, preserving, and displaying European mounts for over 15 years, handling roughly 75–150 deer each season and drawing on more than two decades of antler scoring experience.

    Their process uses careful boiling, extensive hand-cleaning, multiple degreasing stages, and sealing and painting to produce long-lasting, bone-white skulls designed to resist discoloration and breakdown.


    Pricing & Turnaround

    Pricing is clearly itemized, with standard deer euro mounts around $150, bear and hog skulls around $200, hydro-dipped skulls typically $220–$250, most custom displays starting at $50, and many specialty options like turkey fans, predator work, and multi-skull displays priced up front while some exotic and unusual game require a call for a quote.

    They aim to finish and return trophies in under a week from drop-off—often within just a few days—and communicate any material-related delays while offering flexible pickup with no storage fees.

    Additional services include antler scoring, deadhead and antler restoration, predator tails and teeth-in-jar displays, turkey fan mounts, multi-skull tree-pole and commercial-style displays, T-shirts, and educational resources on deer aging and antler traits.
