| SERVING DISCRIMINATING SPORTSMEN AND MUSEUMS SINCE 1976 AWARD WINNING WORK TO LAST A LIFETIME! Careful attention to details along with my sculpting and drawing studies has been the foundation of my taxidermy and anatomy skills and the key to my success in accurate bronzes and the finest custom taxidermy available anywhere. We cater to hunting clients from around the globe. We specialize in QUALITY big game taxidermy. Together with my son Joseph and wife Bernita and staff, we provide the very FINEST in WORLD CLASS TAXIDERMY ART combined with EXCELLENT SERVICE. We also offer high discount shipping to you. We have shipped mounts to France, Switzerland, Spain and to nearly every state in the Union. References and prices gladly given on request.

To provide our valued clients with the very best blue ribbon quality work and service our studio only accepts a limited number of taxidermy big game lifesize and shoulder mounts every year. Studio visits are always welcome. Thank you! |

"The taxidermist must not only equal the form of a sculptor's clay model, he must also make it fit to a certain skin with exactitude. The ideal taxidermist must be a combination of sculptor and anatomist, naturalist, carpenter, blacksmith, and painter. He must have the eye of an artist, the back of a hod carrier, the touch of a wood chopper one day, and of an engraver the next." William T. Hornaday

Our physical studio is located at the East entrance of Yellowstone Park in Cody Wyoming. Our clients are located nationwide. The lack of physical contact with our clients does not hinder a personal, professional relationship with our customers. Most work is shipped to us. Most competent guides and outfitters will prepare, salt and ship your trophies directly to our studio for you. Either contact us before you hunt or include a packing slip with your skins stating your name, address, phone number, email address, hunting license number, tag or seal number. We will contact you the day your trophies arrive. We maintain an ongoing communication with each and every client throughout the progression of each project. You, as the client can see the entire process on your computer screen as we design, build and create your mount. Your decisions for poses, design, presentation can be viewed at your request. We specilize in unique, custom, quality craftsmanship.
