A person’s passion for their work may be easily expressed by their performance! This is a fact in the taxidermy industry. My intake of knowledge is endless; I have taken over 12 years of art courses and studied local sculptures to increase my artistic abilities. As a wet behind the ears kid, I hunted with lifelong friends in the Trans-Pecos Region of Texas and local farms around the local area. I firmly believe that each animal has a unique personality and I pride myself in recreating this thru my work. My studies include primarily white-tailed deer and exotics.
In 1991, I moved to south Texas and spent thousands of hours alone watching, learning, patterning, photographing and hunting white-tailed deer and other species. When a client contacts us and brings their trophy into our business, we make sure the personality and look we give the trophy is exactly how the client describes. We meet in our "Broken Spoke Bar" showroom to discuss the entire project. During our discussion we include details of the hunt and trophy. The client also has the opportunity to observe the craftsmanship and artistic detail that we produce.
Our client’s trust is vital to our business and we can assure you the work is in good hands. The finished product is professional and your satisfaction is our main priority. It is our belief that a trophy is unique to each hunter, it doesn’t matter if it is a youngster with their first trophy or an experienced hunter with a 200” deer, all projects are treated with the same enthusiasm and careful attention to detail. Our business does not have an opendoor policy, “Customer Privacy” is important to us. In addition, we have expanded the business to include African game, fish, and upland game birds. As a deer breeder in the industry, our business is also able to take antler cut-offs from breeder deer and fully reconstruct them either as a mount or on a pedestal for display on your next trade show.
