Just wanted to touch on something Michelle said. I get on the average 25-30 calls a day this time of the year. Half or more do not leave a message. Most are just price checking. If every call was 3-4 minutes on the average that would be an hour and a half of my day NOT working on customers mounts. If it's not important enough for you to leave a message, it's not important enough for me to take the time a call you back. If I don't answer it's not because I just don't feel like answering  the phone. It's because I'M BUSY! I'll usually return calls within the hour. IF YOU LEAVE A MESSAGE!

Like most taxidermist I'm behind also and sitting on the phone isn't going to get me caught up any faster. :twocents:

I've been prepping bears all week for the tannery. There's  nothing better than picking up the phone and getting an ear full of bear fat.  :puke:

Come on Jeff don't you use Bear Fat to soften your skin?  Works wonders. . .

It's even better when you hang up the phone and forget to wipe it off and than answer it later when you don't have gloves on and you get a hand and another ear full of fat and grease. :tup:

I'll start up a collection from the taxidermists in my area for Bear Fat.  We'll get you enough you can take a bath in.  :chuckle: :chuckle:
