    Animal Mount Details

    Full Draw Taxidermy works primarily on big game, birds, and predators, with a strong focus on trophy-level turkey work.

    They offer shoulder mounts, full-body and bird mounts, half mounts, rugs, and remount or repair work, often paired with limb, floor, or pedestal style bases.

    Tanner has spent the last decade traveling the country to study under various taxidermists, earning multiple blue ribbons for his birds and completing the rare U.S. Turkey Slam.

    The studio emphasizes precision, realism, and attention to fine detail, using professionally tanned hides and name-brand commercial forms to produce world-class mounts.


    Pricing & Turnaround

    Pricing is premium and trophy-focused, with clear species-based starting prices and required 50% deposits, such as published rates for turkeys, whitetails, bears, and predators.

    Typical lead time is about one year for turkeys, whitetail deer, and bear mounts, with predator timelines varying by species and some deer completed within a few months.

    They provide rugs, freeze-dry work for turkey heads, remount or repair services, and branded merchandise and gear such as hats, shirts, hoodies, and a turkey bag.
