YOUR TROPHY

NOW THAT I HAVE MY HUNTING LICENSE, WHAT ANIMALS DO YOU ACCEPT?

I accept all big and small game animals, including deer (whitetail and mule), elk, antelope, moose, bear, bison, mountain lion, bobcat, sheep, etc., as well as all exotics and African species. 

I do not mount birds or fish at this time, but I can give you the contact information of someone who does.

OK, I SHOT MY ANIMAL...NOW WHAT?

1. Refer to Field Care for instructions on how to cape your animal.
2. Keep it as cold as possible.  The price of caping, salting, and fleshing is included in the cost of the mount.
3. Stop by my shop and drop the animal off.  Need directions? Click here. Or, if you are in Walden, Colorado, I can make arrangements to get it from North Park Meats.
           North Park Meats
           420 Main Street
           Walden, Colorado 80480
           (970) 723-3333

WHAT IF I HAVE A TAXIDERMIST AT HOME?

I can cape, flesh, turn and salt your hide to get it ready for your taxidermist and then get it shipped to wherever your taxidermist is located. 

If your home state requires skull boiling to prevent Chronic Wasting Disease, I can take care of that for you. 

WHAT DECISIONS DO I HAVE TO MAKE NOW?

Your trophy is completely customizable!

Choose what type of mount you want: 
  • European mount
  • Horn mount
  • Shoulder mount
  • Life size mount
  • Wall pedestal
  • Floor pedestal

For shoulder mounts, you can do right or left sneak, semi-sneak, alert upright, straight. Your elk can be bugling! If you are having trouble making a decision, I can help select a pose that will highlight your animal's great characteristics. 

Your bear can be open mouth or closed mouth.

I can add habitat, rock work, plaques, etc.

Detachable antlers can allow for less expensive shipping costs and easier hanging (recommended for moose and larger elk). 

If you just want a tanned hide, I can take care of that.

If you want a European, you can hang it directly on the wall or you can use Skull Hookers (​https://www.facebook.com/SkullHooker/). 

WHAT DO I HAVE TO PAY?

Click PRICING to view my prices.

Life size and shoulder mounts require a NONREFUNDABLE 50% deposit. No work will be accepted into the production schedule without the deposit.  The remaining 50% balance will be due once the animal is ready to be put into the mounting rotation. Customers will be notified when the remaining balance is due. 

Shipping is NOT included. 

European and horn mounts and tanned hides are paid in full at the time the animal is dropped off.

I accept all major credit cards, cash, or check. Cash/check are preferred.

WHEN WILL I GET MY ANIMAL BACK?

My average turnaround time for shoulder mounts is about 9-12 months. This time frame depends on the turnaround time of the tannery and on suppliers. 

I can do European mounts in 48 hours!

Shipping costs not included. I can ship anywhere in the United States through transport trucks (owned by other companies). 

NOW THAT I HAVE MY ANIMAL BACK, WHAT DO I DO WITH IT?

You will be supplied with a hanger for your mount.  Make sure you hit a stud.

Keep the animal out of the sunlight, as the sunlight will fade the animal over time. Keep it away from direct heat. 

If your mount needs dusted/cleaned, lightly spray with Windex and gently wipe with a dry, gentle cloth in the direction of the hair.
