Everyone needs to go try Backwoods Blessings Taxidermy! They do awesome work for awesome prices. Here is a picture of his latest work he sent me.

My area 300$ is average for just a no frills no extra shoulder mount. I won't lie though I've been using the same taxidermist since the late 90's and I don't pay the 300$ for mine.. Guess it helps when your pretty good buddies with your taxidermist..

I understand that but around my area we have some top notch guys for around 200 to 225. but he does a good job looking at the pictures.

LOL....WOW
I wouldn't touch one for that price with a ten foot pole.
I would love to see some of their work. Not saying it isn't good, but if they are just charging $200 they arent making much if any profit if they are using quality materials.
 
that it does i don't pay full price for mine so maybe it just seems a little expensive to me... he does do good work and he does coyotes and i do not know many that do so i may go and see him for that.
 
I don't know how to put the pictures up im on a phone if you p.m. me I will text you or can email you the pictures. he doesn't do it for a living its just a hobby for him he only takes a certain amount of deer a year so he can charge low he just likes doing it.
 
it helps when you know people like that so you don't have to pay full price just saying im not trying to bash his work or prices just not what we pay around here. and 75 or 100 dollars is a big deal in todays economy. he does a good job it looks like on his web site just stating a simple fact for where we live and the people we know.
 
Talking to him before the only materials he orders comes from mckenzie. But I have always heard good work and cheap and cheap work ain't good . But anyways he's a nice guy and easy to work with.
 
I use a guy that charges $265 and he does dang good work. I would've never thought that you could get decent work at that price but I had to find someone new when my taxidermist quit. Believe me I was hesitant, but this guy turned out to be really good. I just hope he doesn't realize how good he is and start charging more.
 
I just looked at the website listed above and I beleive the guy that runs taxadermist is the same man that killed the monster muzzloader buck from earlier this year in Jamestown that could be a state record. Call it a photographic memory!
 
I can tell you that we use McKenzie supplies and charge $240.00 for a full shoulder mount. We take 10-15 heads a year, (dad has been doing it for 30yrs) to pay for elk license and cabin for our annual Colorado Elk Hunting Trip. I have no shame in telling you that with that price we clear about $115 a mount. That price includes a panel. BUT, if i were to do this for a living, i would not touch one for a penny less than $300.00. I guess what i am trying to say is "Dont judge someones mount quality by their price till you have seen it in person". My .02

Good catch also appears the original poster is the taxidermist from backwoods blessings taxidermy and hunter of the giant muzzle loader referring to himself in the third party .
 
Well I'm sorry buddy and if my mounts don't please u that is fine but my work is quality and I don't believe my eyelashes do point towards the sky. I won't let one user who says I do bad work effect me when I have had many other applaud my work thanks for your two cents though

If you go by price your crazy. Theres a guy in my area who charges 500. he went up just because he got a few of brenda valentines and some knight and hales deer. after that he went from 300 to 500. just because hes 500 now dont mean hes any better than the next one down the road at 350.

heres my taxidermist which happens to be my uncle and i think its top notch. its not 225, but it was 250

You can't tell someone's quality by price it's impossible depends on why your in it in the first place. If its just something u enjoy doing then u can charge whatever you want. If your trying to make a little money at it you just have to charge a little more
