First place at NEAT- New England Association of Taxidermists!! Cole took every bit of information he learned from the NY competition and applied it to this mount. Great improvements were made and it paid off! First place!! We will always be learning more to expand our skill set, so we can provide high quality work for our customers. Thank you all that support us. 🫶🏽

EDIT: Didn’t think we’d have to explain because it’s just common sense, the bear was pretty long expired after we let Cal peak. A great moment for educating your children on wildlife management.

Part of being a good sportsman, a good human, and having love and respect for the outdoors, comes with the responsibility to take care of gut wrenching situations like these. Don’t do nothing, don’t ignore it, call the DEC hotline or the local authorities. Call until the situation is taken care of fully. As we were scouting turkey for youth season, we found this bear sick, lethargic, skin & bones, not neurologically responsive, no fear, no aggression, just completely suffering with likely mange. We contacted everyone we knew until a plan was in place. This bear left tears in our eyes before and after it was humanly euthanized. It was as smooth and peaceful as it could be. We are respectfully grateful this bear is no longer suffering. Thank you to our local DEC officers for assisting and acting quickly. I would like to hope he has a belly full of honey & fish on the other side. God speed.

(PS: Do not approach wild animals, they are unpredictable. It is normal to see bears on the thinner side this time of year do-to the end of hibernation, they are hungry and can be very aggressive. Do not touch an animal with mange as serious injuries can be acquired. Always contact authorities, do not take matters into your own hands or serious charges can be pressed.

Congratulations to Cole Young for placing with all 4 mounts at UTNY competition. We have learned a lot this weekend and we are excited to give our customers even higher quality work in the future!

Hi hunters! Just wanted to post a little update. We have not received our capes back from either tannery (the one in NY and the one in PA). We know early October deer are almost done at the NY tannery. So for now, Cole is at a stand still with work. Alissa has not received the US Fish & Wildlife federal migratory bird license yet, so Alissa is at a stand still as well. We have received all of our big shipments of forms and they are at the shop ready to rip when capes are done. Mounting should go very quickly when capes are completed by the tannery. We have every intention of having every animal done by September 1st, 2024. This scheduling inconvenience is actually working out in our favor. Cole will be donating a portion of his liver to our 2 year old son Cal Roy on February 20th. Many of our customers know of this and some may not, many of you have met Cal in the shop during season too. We are hoping all capes are ready for pick up in a month when Cole is fully recovered. Thank you all for your understanding, patience, and prayers. This is a big year for all of us.

Also, please remember it’s just Cole doing all the deer, bear, coyote, he does not have hired hands.

Hey guys. As many of you know our little Cal had a pretty bad scare. In short summary, he has a nasty virus called adenovirus and his liver is failing along with a lot of other complications due to these two issues. This caused us to almost lose him and pushed us forward for a liver transplant. We got mercy flighted to New York City from Rochester. If you want to read more go to our pages. But nonetheless, we are keeping to our schedule. Every animal got sent to the tannery before Christmas. Cole is working on order sheets so when we get home we can order forms & products to get everyone’s materials in before the tannery is completed. Thank you everyone for supporting us and providing a great season. You were all friendly, kind, and fantastic to work with. We hope it makes you happy to know we are still completely on schedule for the year at this time. 🙌🏽

The buck must have a 20+ inch neck and bring the deer to us whole to be skinned/caped for free as well. Free euro for you, no skinning hassle, hide for us. Thank you guys !

We would like to update the people waiting on their deer. We know deer season is fast approaching and the excitement is rising. We just got our delivery from the tannery less than a month ago. Cole has been working 10 hour days to try his absolute best to get these deer out of the shop as fast as possible. We appreciate your patience and apologize for the longer wait this year!

Also, if you haven’t received your mount, it’s due to 60% of them still being at the tannery. We can’t do them if we don’t have them! Be patient my friends. 🫶🏽

We are officially closed and full for the season. What a bittersweet morning realizing that our freezers are topped off and our numbers have reached last years faster than we ever could have imagined. We want to stay true and close to our goal of getting mounts back to our customers within 12 months. Thank you to our amazing returning customers and thank you to the ones that were recommended to us. It was a fast yet wonderful year. Everything went so smoothly. We couldn’t be more thankful and blessed. Good luck for the rest of your seasons. Thank you for the overwhelming support.

For your harvests the next few weeks we highly recommend our mentors/friends at:
