Western Wa Taxi for Blacktail
« on: November 01, 2016, 12:29:25 PM »
Hey there,

I am getting my buck taxied up in a shoulder mount this year. Anyone have recommendations on a taxidermist that does quality blacktails? Cost is not a concern.
Thanks!

I'd go with either Natures Way taxidermy (Spanaway), or Charlies taxidermy (Tenino).  Both are members here, and do outstanding work on blacktail deer!

Charlies taxidermy in Tenino
He goes by bucklucky on here
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Black River Taxidermy.

His profile on this forum:

Some of the taxidermists already mentioned do great work but be sure to ask about turnaround time, if that's important to you.

In your area Natures Way, just look at his work he has on the forum here.   :tup:
