The Chase Taxidermy Studio

They work on almost all North American big and small game, including large mammals, small mammals, birds, and other game species, with an emphasis on deer and turkey.

You can choose from shoulder mounts, full-body turkey mounts, European skull mounts, antler mounts, bird displays, restoration and remount work, and custom habitat-style displays.

Owner and taxidermist Kyle Klopfenstein has over a decade of focused taxidermy experience, building on nearly 22 years of related work and extensive training in deer shoulder mounts before going full-time in 2024.

He has completed well over one hundred shoulder mounts and hundreds of European mounts, treating each piece as his own and emphasizing meticulous craftsmanship, realism, and clean, natural presentations.

They publish a detailed 2025–2026 price list with competitive rates, including examples like deer European mounts starting around typical euro pricing tiers, shoulder mounts for whitetail and mule deer at $795, antler plaques at $130, turkey displays and feather art at clearly posted prices, custom displays priced per project, and a 50% non-refundable deposit required on shoulder mounts, full-body turkey mounts, and hunting blinds, plus a 3% fee for credit card payments.

Turnaround times are described as reasonable and are discussed at drop-off, with reviews praising quick, reliable completion and an expedited deer European mount option that guarantees a 2-weeks-or-less turnaround at double the normal cost.

Additional services include hydro-dip and metal finishes on skulls, antler reconstruction, custom habitat-style displays, made-to-order hunting blinds, restoration and rework of existing mounts, and a 24/7 camera-monitored drop bin for skulls and antlers.
