3rd year Taxidermist looking to mount your trophies (capital region)

This will be my 3rd season doing taxidermy and I'd love to mount some critters for any of you in and around the capital region (I live in downtown Troy). I say this every year but I'm still not at the professional level yet so I won't be charging professional level prices. I'll be charging $250 for a deer shoulder mount this year. I've done a few turkeys, coyote, fish, european mounts and my pride and joy... my maine bull moose! I also started mounting deer hides on a piece of wood shaped like the state of NY which I think came out really cool. Did some moose for Maine too. I'd be more than willing to try some other game animals as long as you don't expect perfection for my first one. For the time being I'm only going to be doing reproduction fish, not actual skin mounts. Let me know if you're interested or if you have any questions. And good luck this season!!!f5e189658ff347e5034561494fae0ed6.jpg037001f9885e58e00e93ef0f2365bc77.jpgab1b8f502a941ce9527490b6a8d22745.jpg7a1b55f9e554f84d877449f2fdb6aef1.jpgb46b3dcf4a3b375048ad0bf0bba45722.jpg9b8fa075ef2f6e25bda2f73cdc1e430b.jpg138a17910c413f1f02f51fd1760c52a4.jpgc9f81756eae4973524cd4fb4b0fd41d9.jpg4c8236d2080f9d821adac879efdcbed8.jpgf3629379576dcc03d464248ff1cc9859.jpg0001c11b887b4d6cfb106bb854cddfbb.jpge4a5f698ad20ca0b9f5ceff89c003cdf.jpg0bf3a47ca1a739165398029539edbd26.jpgb579d0dc002f79be4b3d5aecffa35e42.jpg

Didn't move yet man?  I know when we talked in January you were hoping to get out of Troylet and out in the boonies.  Though with real estate being out of the fricking world expensive probably better to wait.

This man does good work, and has a very quick turn around.  I expect it's about to get longer though as more people realize how good he is.

 

And for the love of god man raise your prices this year!  I'd happily pay double!

This is what he did for me last year:

Thanks for the kind words man. Yea, we've been looking at houses all summer but this market is still pretty crazy. Really getting sick of city life but we also don't want to rush into just any house we can afford. It's gotta be right and we just haven't found it yet. Gotta have a decent garage or barn to turn into a taxidermy shop. Plus we're not working with a huge budget and everything we look at is going $20000 to $50000 over asking. Hopefully it will settle down this winter and we find something worthwhile
