Sure Shot Taxidermy is a taxidermy studio located in Bonner Springs, Kansas, offering professional mounting, stuffing, rug, and tanning services for game from North America, Africa, and other continents.
You can work with a locally owned shop that handles both common hunting trophies and specialized African and exotic specimens from six continents.
They operate as a full-service studio with options ranging from shoulder and life-size mounts to European and horn mounts, rugs, and tanning.
Sure Shot Taxidermy works on big game, small game, birds, fish (including replicas), exotics, and other legally harvested animals.
Available mount styles include shoulder mounts, life-size mounts, antler and horn mounts, European mounts, rugs, and tanning, with optional habitats and scenery.
With around 40 years of taxidermy experience and continuous operation since 1990, the studio focuses on accurate, realistic, and life-like representations.
Reviews consistently highlight detailed, natural-looking work across many species, with many repeat customers returning for multiple mounts.
They use flat-rate pricing with a detailed published price list for most projects, transparent charges for extras, and no hidden fees, and invite you to call for quotes on unlisted work.
Customers describe prices as fair and competitive, and most report turnaround times that are as quoted or faster, though a few note longer waits and occasional pickup delays.
They also offer rugs, tanning, custom scenery and habitat bases, fish replicas, and finished mounts from previous projects.
Reviewers overwhelmingly praise the quality, calling the mounts detailed, pristine, realistic, and top notch across deer, birds, fish, euro mounts, and rugs, with one negative bird review standing out as an exception.
Most customers describe the team as friendly, helpful, and easy to work with, though a few report frustration with unreturned calls or scheduling for pickup.
Many reviews cite reliable results and quick or faster-than-expected completion, while some acknowledge longer waits tied to high demand and, in one case, dissatisfaction with both wait time and quality.
The studio is based in Bonner Springs, Kansas, and serves hunters and anglers from the wider Midwest, including clients bringing in North American, African, and other exotic game.
Call ahead to confirm seasonal hours, discuss your specific animal, and review pricing and turnaround before you visit or drop off a trophy.
