Sportsman Wildlife Taxidermy

Sportsman Wildlife Taxidermy primarily works on big game and small game, with limited tanning services for select items.

You can choose from shoulder mounts, lifesize mounts, half-mounts, and euro skull mounts, with work focused on natural, realistic presentation.

Matt has over 20 years of full-time taxidermy experience and previously spent 4 years working in a local tannery, bringing strong tanning and mounting knowledge to each project.

The studio emphasizes quality, attention to detail, and realism, with all mounts tanned in-house to help control consistency and finish.

Pricing reflects the time and material costs involved, with example rates such as $800 for shoulder mounts on certain big game, $1,200–$1,400 for many lifesize small game mounts, euro skull mounts starting around $100–$200, and black bear lifesize work priced per foot.

A 50% deposit is required before work enters the queue, average turnaround runs about 10–14 months for shoulder mounts and 12–18 months for bear half mounts and lifesize mounts, and the studio stresses that they will not rush work at the expense of quality.

They offer limited tanning services for deer flats and occasionally run promotional package discounts via coupon.
