Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

I had a deer head mounted there several years ago.  It turned out terrible and I wound up just discarding the head a few years later.  I'm not sure if they are under the same ownership group though. 

I use Perter's in Graham and have had no issues.  He has mounted several deer heads and one full body bear mount.  The price is high, but you will not be disappointed.

I wouldn't send anyone there. A friend of mine shot his first bull and decided to take it there because the price was low. It turned out looking like an elk on crack. He shot another bull a few years later and he took it to Rainier Taxidermy out in Roy and he couldn't have been happier when he got it back. Our group takes all our animals out to Zack, he may take a little longer and you may pay more but if the work is awesome and the animal looks just as good in 10-15 years then I'm willing to pay more.

I have had 1 shouldeer munt and 2 european mounts don by Roger and h did a fine job for me.
I know two other guys that have had him do some work also and are satisfyied.
He has raise up his prices a bit in the last few years though.



I stop in once in a while and take a look around, and he has done some amasing mounts.



I have posted my mounts in th etaxadermy section. The first was from Critter Corner and the others were done bby Rogers.


I am not going to say he is the best, but i would use him again.
