I went to my first show ever at the West Virginia Taxidermy Association Competition to better improve my work for my clients and compete against the best taxidermist in the State and surrounding states to see where the cards fall. … I’d like to take the opportunity to express my appreciation for this competition and how truly blessed I was to be able to go to my very first competetion and be awarded the People’s Choice award for the Best bird in the entire competition… I also received a 2nd place Ribbon for 2nd place in the Professional division for the wild Turkey,,, literally 1 point short from 1st place…. Now back to the grind stone..

—ANNOUNCEMENT for Turkey season tomorrow —

First I’d like to announce that prior to this season I found a little bit of time and went into a very extensive Turkey training class and was able to mount this bird with hands down one of the best Turkey taxidermist that I’ve had the pleasure of being around —-Nathan Padgett —- this has by far took my commercial birds to a entirely new level, to turn out a better bird than I have ever done in my life… look at them lines son!!!! Big shout out to Nathan for helping me break through to a new level of Turkey taxidermy … it’s truly been a pleasure… to work aside and learn from one of the best in the buisness!! And I’m excited to be able to step up my game in this industry , I’m excited to get my heads back and start getting birds out the door!!!

Good luck to all our youth Turkey hunters!!!!!
Keep us is mind!! We’d love to help you capture the memory of a life time this spring!!
God Bless and Happy Hunting!!!

Let me tell you some myths that are some bad ideas lol

DO NOT STEP ON A TURKEYS HEAD (WILL TEAR THE NECK FEATHERS OUT!!

DO NOT LET HIM FLOP ON THE GROUND AND OVER THE BANK LOL STICKS ROCKS ARE HARD ON THEM FEATHERS!!!

ONCE HE HAS EXPIRED GET A SANDWHICH BAGGIE ON HIS HEAD TUCK IT UNDER THE WING DOUBLE TRADH BAG HIM AND GET HIM TO THE FREEZER!!!!!

DO NOT LET THIS TURKEY SIT OUT IN THE SUN FOR HOURS OR DAYS IN THE BACK OF YOUR TRUCK…. MAKE A DECISION GET HIM TO THE FREEZER

ONCE IN THE FREEZER DO NOT HAVE HIS TAIL SMASHED OR BENT BY YOUR THANKSGIVING TURKEY MAN LOL

Any questions call me or message me!!

ATTENTION

To all my Turkey customers of last year!!! We will have our freeze dryed heads back March 1st!! It delays me just a bit! Unfortunately I’m going to miss the Nashville show…. Due to not having them back… its a bummer i wanted to see some of you down there… but…. We will most defiantly be at our home state show this year!! I wanna see ya guys there!!!
Secondly keep in mind once the heads are here we will be mounting turkeys like it’s going out of style!!!!!!
Now remember this… a few things you never wanna do is substitute time for quality… our freeze dryer guy gives the most realistic head in the country so… it’s worth it to wait for him.. and another thing is you NEVER EVER EVER want to rush a taxidermist.. so with that.. I won’t be bugging my freeze dryer guy, he said March 1st that’s when we get them! I want the absloute best head he can throw at me so I can send you the absloute best bird I can throw at you!!! I’m excited for Turkey season!!! Send me pics of the upcoming season!!!

Sincerealy Dylan!! God bless

To all my Hunters tomorrow, be safe and shoot straight… the night before season…. At deer camp…. Over the fire… soak all these memories in… and if the good lord blesses you tomorrow or this season… we ask you keep us in mind this year!! We are at a set number on how many we are taking in so reach out and get us your trophy!!

**REMINDER**
With the current temperatures we are having, get your deer dropped off to your taxidermist as quickly as you can after harvesting. This is extremely important!! We are seeing way too many capes ruined due to being in the sun too long. The hair slips right off.

1. Keep cape dry
2. Keep out of the sun
3. Don't wait to drop it off. We cape it for FREE if we are mounting it!

To all my bow hunters, tomorrow is the first day of Deer season….. what we all have been waiting for huh!! Let them arrows fly straight and true!!! Take a youth!! Here are some things updated to the shop and ways we will be running it this year!!!

Across the board on mounts this year half will be collected up front and then you will be contacted and advised that your deer will be started this week and we will then take final payment! and begin your mount!

There will be a addition added to my business that is under full surveillance and it will be a contactless drop if your willing to do that! We will have instructions laid out and a secured payment method worked out with a lock box installed

My phone is always open, I do answer better to text messages than I do calls but deff give me a call I want to deff hear about your hunts and if we can help capture that memory we would love to do that! Keep us in mind here at Johnson’s Wildlife taxidermy Studio!

Looking forward to hearing from you
