Michelle Nelson's taxidermy
« on: April 14, 2008, 09:16:47 PM »
Gang,
Just wanted to get a shout out to Michelle.  She finished my first Whitey buck yesterday.  She exceeded my expectations on delivery, quality and price.  She is very honest and the buck looks great.  If you are on the fence regarding a good taxi' Michelle is the real deal.  Thank you, Michelle!

Michelle was so good at detail, she even taxidermied the deer ticks found on the buck...  Like I said, she is good.      :chuckle:   



...just kidding, the buck was done perfectly, no ticks.. no burrs, etc

Mossback says this is posted elsewhere but this seems like a good place.
Maybe you fellas should consider the 75$ for Michelle to do one of these for that boring old euro mount you have in the trophy room?...thought it added a nice touch to an otherwise completely normal average bear skull...lol :P
