Did anyone mention that Michelle lives in Olympia and is a good taxidermist.  You can tell her boneaddict sent you and you'll get more preferential treatment than if you mention shadowcats name. ;)

Contact Michelle, but whatever ya do, do NOT tell her I sent ya..lol

Actually I was down at Olympic Archery and Michelle had already been down there with cards and price lists. The owner was very impressed that she brought mounts down to show him instead of photos.

LMAO! @ Bone! I was on the phone with Michele when you put that up. She and her husband are in Oregon and will call as soon as they can. They lost signal when we were talking.

LOL! Glad to help Brush! She is good. I am going to take my Mulie to her to have some repairs done to it and let her keep it for a while in her show room.

Just having fun Shadow.  I would hate to be in business as a Taxidermist in the Olympia area now.  There is a new Sheriff in town.  I just hope she doesn't forget us little people. :)

Another great taxidermist is in Tenino. He does awsome work. He had a booth at the sportsmans show last year with a huge bull in velvet and a lifesize cougar. I think its Charlies Taxidermy. You may want to check his work out also.

Charlies Taxidermy has done an awesome job on a few animals for me. His phone number is 360-264-2567. He finished an antelope last year in 5 months!
