A processor "lost" the first nice buck I ever killed when I was 14 years old. He gave my 8 point to someone else and gave me a little 100 inch 8 point in its place. Im still sore about to this day, I never found out who got it.

Nightmares for sure!
I lost a really good 6 point, 22 in spread with 2 1/2 base on the horns.....it was a good 6 Taxedermist smoked up everyones money and sold the Antlers...he WAS in Tipton Co. a few years ago
New Taxedermist probably thinks Im crazy, I walked in and wanted to see my 12 point at least once a month until it was done
Ive had a fox come back looking funny and a Bobcat looking rough too.
Im looking for a good taxedermist you dont have to wait 3 years for your mount if anyone knows one.

Walter Wilkerson Taxedermist in Dyersburg Tenn 731-286-0853, he just completed a 12 point for me that I got last Thanksgiving morning. We carried it to him on Nov. the 27th, he said that he had a 10 month turn around on it, he had it ready for me to pick up by June. Only took him like 6 months, had it mounted with ears in alert position looking straight ahead. He did a wonderful job on it. He charged me 350.00 dollars for a full shoulder mount. He is very well known around our area and has received various awards for his work. He works a full time job as a fireman at the Dyersburg Fire Department and he and his wife do this on the side. I will certainly use him again and higly recommend him to anyone needing a taxedermist. Just tell him Rick McNulty recommended him.

I sent a bear hide to be fleshed and tanned for a rug, guy cut it all to pieces, holes all in it. I ended up throwing it away, was pretty disgusted!
