Another state show in the bag! The 2025 Texas Taxidermy Association holds an annual competition/convention that we attend to learn, challenge ourselves, and grow our network of mentors. This year we did good, brought home some great awards and a lot of wonderful memories and new knowledge.

Congrats to Courtney for being awarded the SCI Best North American Animal for her javelina.

Simone brought home her Provenzano Award for excellence in Game Heads, which takes several years of competing at a high level.

Hunter scored higher than any of his previous pieces, which shows continued growth with this super aggressive blackbuck. Our gamehead judge, Bill Neuman is a veteran with a close eye for detail and helped explain what’s being done well and what can be improved upon for next year.

Gianna was not only bringing home her best score with her caribou, but causing the most mischief around the show! Watching her grow into such a natural talent so quickly while always keeping us laughing is why we love having her on the team!

This show is the biggest, most difficult state show and we are so proud of how all our team members did with their pieces! Thank you to TTAI for putting on such an amazing event and bringing so much information to the world of taxidermy!

The new girl, Grace has definitely found her place at the shop, right in the arms of this big, bad bear 🤣 Her joyful attitude and ability to bounce between multiple departments has been so wonderful, she makes us laugh so hard, and we are so happy to have her on our team!

And just like that, we have a BIG, beautiful bongo in the shop! An animal this size is always an undertaking, but this form has to be sized up significantly. Studying reference and reading the skin take years to master, and Courtney helped show Gianna the ropes. She’s been doing a phenomenal job with gameheads and some bigger African species, so we let her take the reins on mounting this beautiful animal. Seeing a finished product that exceeds our expectations is what the teaching experience is all about. Way to kick ass Gianna!

Tomorrow we wrap up this big, bad, chonky Texas bongo and we couldn’t be more excited! Being located in central Texas offers us a plethora of amazing animals to work on from nearby exotic ranches. We never know what will roll in the door from day to day.

The stacked roan/sable pedestal is mounted! It’s crazy to look around and see what all amazing things we have going on at once in the shop. 10 years ago we would have DIED to get more than one African crate in a month. Now, we get several a week. Ask and you shall receive. Kudos to our amazing team for keeping things moving at all times, we appreciate all the hard work!

Today was bittersweet, as we wished Shannon smooth sailing into the next chapter of her life. She’s been with us for 9 amazing years, through ups and downs, thick and think she has always been a rockstar employee. She’s taught countless people tricks of the trade, earned many prestigious awards in competition and helped shape our company into what we are today. There’s no doubt in our minds we would not be where we are without her hard work and years of dedication to the craft. We will never be able to replace her talent, adorable giggles and the friendship she brought to our team. Shannon, we wish you the best of luck in the next bc chapter of your life, we know you will continue to be the amazing, sweet and dedicated person you’ve always been. We love you and are so thankful for every day we got to work alongside you!

Texas is heating up so we decided to have some fun today and do a watermelon eating contest! Each piece was weighed prior to starting and no hands allowed! Messed were made, laughs were had and Courtney walked away with a cash prize for the win! It’s days like this we can look back on and smile, share a few laughs and reminisce.

We love when little ones come into the shop and point at all the animals, naming them and telling us what sounds they make! This is Evie, Simone’s niece and she was just overjoyed coming to see what her amazing aunt does for a living! That smile made our hearts melt 🥰

Euros with velvet are so cool, especially when the velvet is this fluffy! This is a Père David’s david deer, a very unique and not so often seen animal in our shop. Native to China, but kept on exotic ranches in Texas, it is a sought after animal for the hunter who has most of the standard exotics already ticked off his or her list.
