And last I had talked to him he has a good turn around time, especially summer months cause he stays cought up most of the time. Does shows and all.

Post by: Birdgetter on March 25, 2019, 01:05:45 PM: His name is Pat Bradburn. He is located in Oregon, just look up NW Wings taxidermy. He does great work, however you can't go wrong with Seth Lane.
