Animal Mount Details
They work on birds, North American big game, and predators, with an emphasis on waterfowl and popular big game species, and they do not currently take on fish projects.
You can choose from shoulder mounts, bird mounts, predator mounts, tanning-supported big game work, and rugging for suitable trophies.
Luke learned taxidermy under the mentorship of a retired taxidermist, rebuilding his own collection after the 2018 Camp Fire and eventually turning that passion into a full-time business he and Cassie operate together.
They emphasize nature-based realism, custom poses, and sending big game hides to professional commercial tanneries rather than using cheap pickle tans to support long-term trophy care.
Pricing & Turnaround
They publish detailed price lists, including 2025 Blacktail shoulder mounts starting at $800, and encourage you to download their PDFs or contact them directly for specific project pricing.
They aim to return most trophies within about one year of drop-off, with shoulder mounts listed at approximately one-year turnaround and rugs sometimes taking longer due to tannery wait times.
In addition to standard mounts, they offer rugging and use professional tanning services for big game capes and hides.
What Customers Say

Customers highlight friendly, trustworthy service, clear communication, and a willingness to answer questions and accommodate requests, with some clients traveling long distances or planning repeat work.
Reviews mention reasonable pricing and timely or even quick completion of work, with no reports of delays and some services, like skinning, done while the customer waits; overall feedback is strongly positive across only a handful of reviews.
