Animal Mount Details
They primarily work on North American, Asiatic, African, and exotic big game, along with birds and other small to medium game, and they do not mount fish.
You can choose from shoulder and pedestal mounts, full-body mounts for larger animals, European-style skull mounts with plaque options, and custom habitat-style presentations.
The studio highlights owner Chris by name and showcases extensive completed work in an online gallery, reflecting a strong focus on experience and specialization in trophy game.
Reviews consistently describe lifelike, museum-quality mounts with detailed, natural poses that bring trophies “back to life.”
Pricing & Turnaround
They publish a 2025–2026 price list, require a 50% deposit, and invite you to call for current pricing or custom mount quotes, with examples like $700 for a whitetail shoulder mount and $2,500 for a moose or buffalo shoulder mount.
Turnaround times range from fast completion with mounts returned when promised to waits of nine months or longer, and some customers report much longer delays during busy periods.
They also offer hide tanning, mount restoration, custom creations, plaques, name plates, and soft-tanned deer hides.
What Customers Say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the quality and realism, calling the work phenomenal, museum-quality, and still beautiful years later, especially for deer mounts and other big game.
Most reviewers describe friendly, helpful staff who take time to explain options, though a few detailed reviews report poor communication, lack of updates, and one highly negative interaction with the owner.
Many clients report fast, organized service and on-time delivery, while others mention waits of a year or more and delayed projects, so expectations on turnaround should factor in seasonal demand.
