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!
