Charlie is a very good taxidermist on here, I also think Rainer taxidermy in graham is very good! Natures way has been getting good reviews as well.

Just got my daughters mount back and I am less than excited. I need to see if I can find one to fix it.

I found him. Thanks. He did a great buck out of Oregon. Wish I had done my research. Thanks.

you bet, can't imagine having work done and not like it.  You won't have to worry with either of the guys I mentioned.  Good luck!

Brazier taxidermy- black diamond

[scudmaster]

Thanks all.  Mine was done by a Taxi who is a friend.  Gonna give him a chance to make it right.  But if not, I all contact them  Thanks for the quick responses.

I appreciate the attention to detail that Charlie's Taxidermy puts into his Blacktails. He has mounted several for our family and friends in the last few years and they all look amazingly lifelike.

I have a BT at Charlie's right now.  I have a friend of a friend w/a house full of Taxidermy who lives in Oregon, I was visiting and asked about a BT and a mule deer that both really stood out from the other mounts and the guy said: they were both done by a guy from up in your country.  That's how I learned about Charlie.

Chad at adrenaline taxidermy. He is a sponsor on here as well.

[jjaba]

I've heard Trails End Taxidermy in Dayton does good work.

[luvmystang67]

Natures way does all my stuff and I think they do a great job there.

[finnman]

I have used Peters, Rainier, and natures way...Mike at natures way gets all of my work now. He is a great artist!

[Reelmccoy]

This is my mount from Fidalgo Taxidermy, I have never gone back.

[MLBowhunting]

Peters or Nature's way

Thanks. The fine detail is awesome. It looks alive, Garth does a great job. I won't go to anyone else.

[jackmaster]

I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings here but when it comes to blacktail NOONE does a better job than Jack Paige who owns mineral lake taxidermy, that man lives eats and breaths blacktail, its the only place we will take a blacktail.. bucklucky does an awesome job, natures way does a Damn nice job to.. but Jack is the tops

Thanks Dave, yea give me a shout and I'll take a look at it if you still need someone! Good luck!

[stringer]

Yet to see anyone hold a candle to Garth's work.

Charlie does amazing work. I would for sure look him up.

  Don't want to take anything away from the others, but I saw a couple mounts in Oregon that were just "speaking to me."  When I ask who?  The owners said it is a guy from your country named Charlie Smith, he is in Tenino.

You gotta get in line behind me at Charlies!

[JPhelps]

Charlie just finished up this blacktail for me. It doesn't get much better than this.

[Natures Way]

Thank you to everyone! here are some that we have done.

[fishnfur]

All are gorgeous mounts!

 Now, if I could just kill a deer like that......

[JDHasty]

You gotta get in line behind me at Charlies!

Not unless you beat me there in Oct '14

[JDHasty]

Thank you to everyone! here are some that we have done.

Natures Way does absolutely beautiful work.

Ah, I guess you're in front of me. Its a '14 buck, but I didn't take it into him until I picked up another buck last year.

Looks as though all the major players are represented in this thread.  All of them mentioned do exceptional blacktail work. No doubt my uncle Jack Page (Mineral Lake Taxidermy) represents the blacktail species well with the highest level of artistry.

In the past he has shoulder mounted a Columbian and a Sitka black-tail as well as an Entiat mule deer for me.  When he semi-retired from doing shoulder mounts back in fall of 2014 he agreed to mount one more quality Sitka BT for me prior to retiring fully from shoulder mounts. Soon after I had called him from AK, caped out the deer head; and told him I was transporting it home he broke the news that he had to steer me elsewhere.  For what its worth, the person who impressed him most, trusted, and recommended to finish out my Sitka BT was someone listed here several times.....Charlie's Taxidermy. 

Obviously he didn't have to twist my arm.  The cape has been at Charlie's shop ever since.  Tick Tock, Tick Tock.   Can't wait!

There's a Taxidermist in Ridgefield wa that is supposed to be awesome...  Alot of guys that spend BIG MONEY hunting AK, Africa etc use him..  To this date I haven't seen anyone in Cowlitz or Lewis County worth a crap.  There is a guy in Forrest grove oregon thats good too.  I much prefer a skull mount myself.   Skull mounts always look better longer.

Rainier Taxidermy does excellent work, I've taken every deer to him along with my dad and brother. Have him do your meat too, he will do just as good a job as the mounts

Limits, it's nice to know jack personally steered you that way your uncle has done so many BT for our family, it's nice to know he finally hung up it completely but sucks at the same time. He will have plenty of time now to chase those monsters that he always talked about..

[Reelmccoy]

Fidalgo Taxidermy, Notice it is not hanging in my game room

You all are in line behind me! Oh wait mine is done  i'm going to be grabbing it soon

This mount is a little more palmated then a blacktail but still

[huntnfmly]

Another vote for mike at Natures way.The pics of his work don't do justice to his work.you really need to visit his shop
