best taxidermist and average cost?
« on: August 06, 2014, 11:53:20 AM »
 :hello: what is the best taxidermist you ever went to in Washington (preferably in western Washington) and how much did it cost or say the average cost.
I will be hunting white tail, maybe mule deer. If I get a deer it will be my first one so I would like to get it "framed" but I don't know how much it will cost. Thanks! :IBCOOL:

Nature's Way!  If you were to stop by his shop and see his work in person you wouldn't want to go anywhere else!  Very fair prices and top notch work.
