TaxidermyXTaxidermist in Powhatan, Virginia
Outdoorsman Taxidermy and Wild Game Processing Co is a taxidermy studio located in Powhatan, Virginia that also operates a wild game processing facility.
They combine a full taxidermy shop with a processing operation that handles game from drop-off through finished mounts and packaged meat products.
Their taxidermy work focuses on creating trophy mounts, while the processing side offers a full menu of venison and other game products.
They primarily serve big game and other wild game animals, with additional custom beef and pork processing in the off season.
Available mount styles include shoulder mounts, life-size mounts, and European mounts.
They have operated in Powhatan since 2006 and state that they love what they do and take great care in handling each animal.
They emphasize producing high-quality mounts and meat products that you can be proud to display and serve.
They publish detailed, itemized pricing, with example taxidermy rates such as $750 for a shoulder mount and $150 for a euro mount, and processing prices starting at an $80 base fee plus clearly listed per‑pound charges for specialty items.
Reviews describe quick turnaround for meat processing, while taxidermy turnaround is reported as highly variable, with some customers experiencing multi‑year delays.
They offer comprehensive wild game processing, including burger, steaks, roasts, sausage, bologna, snack sticks, and other specialty products, as well as custom beef and pork processing by appointment in the off season.
Customers often praise the quality of processed meat and some completed mounts, but others report issues such as missing meat, damaged or mixed‑up trophies, and in a few cases not receiving taxidermy work after paying a deposit.
Many reviewers describe the staff as friendly, helpful, and treating repeat customers like family, while others report poor communication, difficulty getting updates, and dissatisfaction with how problems are handled.
Processing is frequently described as fast and efficient, but taxidermy reliability is rated much more mixed, with repeated reports of very long delays and lost or mishandled items.
They are located at 5920 Old Buckingham Rd in Powhatan, Virginia and serve hunters and game processors in Powhatan and the surrounding area.
You can review their posted hours, follow their game preparation guidelines, and contact the shop directly with questions or to confirm current capacity before bringing in an animal.
