  • Antler Focus: Highlight antler span, beam curvature, and tine detail in an ideal viewing plane.

  • Versatility: Choose from wall plaques, wood backboards, or sculpted resin bases.

Species-Specific Designs

Whitetail Deer Shoulder Mount

Our whitetail deer shoulder mount captures the soft fur tones and characteristic rack of this iconic species. We sculpt the hide to reflect shoulder musculature and mount on resin or wooden plaques.

Mule Deer Taxidermy

Mule deer commissions benefit from specialized form selection to mirror broader ears and deeper chest contours. Our mule deer taxidermy process ensures true-to-life posture and skin alignment.
