      Animal Mount Details

      Jim works on big game, small game, birds, bears, fish, and European skull and antler projects, including both shoulder and life-size mounts and rugs.

      You can choose from shoulder mounts, full-body mounts, European skull mounts, antler mounts, bird mounts, and rugs, with custom poses and plaque-style displays available.

      Jim trained in a certified Master Taxidermy course under multi-state award-winning taxidermist Marc Jordan at the Western Pennsylvania School of Taxidermy and brings years of hands-on hunting and fishing experience to his work.

      He emphasizes competition-quality craftsmanship with realistic detail, careful eye and ear placement, and mounts designed to look lifelike and last for years.


      Pricing & Turnaround

      The studio publishes a detailed price list and promotes itself as one of Macomb and St. Clair County’s most reasonably priced taxidermists, with example rates like around $650 for a whitetail deer shoulder mount and clearly posted prices for big game, birds, small game, skulls, antlers, and rugs; contact the studio or view the price list for exact quotes.

      Mounts are usually completed in about 4–6 months, with rush service available, and Jim positions his turnaround as roughly 50% faster and more reliable than many shops that take 12–18 months.

      Additional options include bear and predator rugs, European skull cleaning, redoing old mounts, sourcing capes for custom projects, and guidance on caring for and transporting your trophy before mounting.
