Ideal Taxidermy

The studio works on big game, birds, and fish, and also offers restoration of existing mounts.

They provide shoulder mounts, full-body bird mounts, European mounts, fish skin mounts, fish replicas, and custom pieces with habitats and wood bases.

Owner Ryan Stahl emphasizes pride in craftsmanship and custom design, aiming to meet or exceed each customer’s expectations.

Their approach highlights realistic, detailed work tailored to how you want your trophy presented.

They publish sample prices, including standard deer mounts at $800, deer European mounts at $200, ducks at $400, geese at $800, fish and replicas at $30 per inch with a $300 minimum, and restoration at $50 per hour, with a 50% deposit required and custom mounts, scenery, and wood bases quoted individually.

They intentionally limit the number of mounts each season so you can expect a controlled workload and timely turnaround, with at least one reviewer noting a very quick completion time.

They offer restoration and repair of old mounts along with custom habitat scenery and wood bases.
