🦌🦌🦌 WHITETAIL UPDATE 🦌🦌🦌

First, a huge congrats to Dillen Decker on his 185" Missouri giant from a few weeks ago!

Yes I still have whitetail spots open and yes I'm still taking new customers right now.

I'm getting a lot of referrals from other taxidermists who are at capacity. They recommend me because they know I will take good care of their customers! That means a lot to me! Thank you for that!

If you need a spare cape I have one! Right now I have 60 spare capes in the freezer. Long hair, short hair, brown, orange, piebald, double whitepatch, big or small I have a little bit of everything! I will start selling the majority of them to other taxidermists around the first of the year. But my customers get first dibs.

Lead time is at 8-10 months currently.

Thanks!

Good luck and stay safe this weekend 🦌

Nov 1st has most of us thinking about large antlered deer 🦌

While you're daydreaming about that big buck check out this gray fox

A coyote sneaks past you at dusk, creeping along the riverbank silently. You click the safety off your gun, when you do, it makes the slightest "click" sound. The coyote snaps his head back alertly looking your way just before you pull the trigger.

As an artist, I try to capture a moment in time and display it for my customer. Here's the moment.

I'm planning a trip to pickup deer in the southeast part of the state next week. I have a few customers who've reached out from Southern Michigan and Northern Ohio. If you have one in the freezer get in touch with me.

I'm trying to make it convenient for you guys 2+ hours away.

In the mean time, here's a yote roughed in last week

I'm still looking to buy capes. Especially during the month of October. So before you cut that head off, get ahold of me!
Here's a nice one from earlier this week.

Here's a real nice Michigan bobcat that went home today.

I have 2 more youth spots that can be done before Christmas if you get them to me this weekend

Also have lots of nice spare youth capes if you need a cape.

Cute lil gray finished up!

No one is remotely close on their guesses. So, I'll just post the aging results.

Just shows how hard it is to judge a deers age on the hoof.

A 3.5
B 3.5
C 3.5
D 3.5
E 5.5

🦌🦌🦌 Let's play a guessing game 🦌🦌🦌

Last year I sent teeth from these 5 deer (and others) to a lab that does cementum aging. The results were not what I expected.

The first to guess the correct age of all 5 gets a free CWA hat.

Comment your guess on the main thread not on the pictures. The deer are in order A-E

List the letter of the deer followed by the yrs of age. Your guess should look like this:

A 5
B 10
C 5
D 25
E 5

Good luck!

🦌 Here's a basic whitetail price list for 2024 🦌

Lead times are still around 6-8 months and youth season deer should be done before Christmas (as long as we don't get too many)

New this year, we'll be taking in euros.

Still looking to buy nice capes especially early season ones.

Feel free to reach with any questions.

As always, thank you for supporting us! ❤️

Check out this sweet michigan bull!!! Once in a lifetime tag! You can watch the hunt on michigan out of doors, episode #2402

Here's a couple of giant Michigan stream browns. This was a fun piece to work on since I'm somewhat of a brown trout nut myself. I think they are some of the most beautiful fish in the world. Michigan is one of the best places to catch 20"+ fish, but it's not easy! They can be elusive, finicky, and picky at times. All that just adds to the elation when you catch a fish in the 25" caliber, like these both are!
I am not taking in any fish at this time but I have a few other taxidermists in Michigan that are extremely talented that I can reffer you to if your are looking to have some fish done.

Here's a cool custom piece that I just delivered to a couple of my favorite customers. These are both custom altered poses.

Every piece tells a story.

The younger buck is marking the territory by leaving his scent on the rubbing tree. The older buck is not happy and about to kick some buck butt 🤪

This finished up the 2023 whitetails.

I have a handful of projects to work on but as of today I am accepting more whitetails. If you have one in the freezer get with me and we'll schedule a drop off.
