Taxidermist in Greater Spokane area?
« on: March 02, 2016, 05:25:00 PM »
I am thinking ahead here, but I am planning on a backpack bear hunt with my daughter this spring.  Who would you guys take the hide to for a rug?  Price is a pretty big concern for me.

I have used him.  Topnotch work for sure.  A little drive though.

Blews taxidermy in deer park does very good work

But worth it as I live in Port Angeles and still take my animals to him.

Dark Timber Taxidermy in Colville, owned by Troy Henderson.  He has worked with Pat Scott (Scott's Taxidermy) since he was a kid.  Nice shop and fair prices. :twocents:
