longshooter Report post Posted August 25, 2007 Any one know a good taxidermist on the west side of town ? I was thinking about having a taxidermist do a euro mount for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SilentButDeadly Report post Posted August 25, 2007 I'd bring it down to Tucson and go to Weller's, can't beat a 6-8 month turn around time. Also - I was considering a Euro mount for my velvet Coue's - everyone I talked to said velvet Euro doesn't look so good, they convinced me to do a shoulder mount - and I am glad for it. Why not bite the bullet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted August 26, 2007 Call Bret (GTT) for sure!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
longshooter Report post Posted August 26, 2007 I did take it to Gtt today. Saw some of his work and I can honestly say he does some nice work. He is not big enough for a shoulder mount I think. Besides I got a coues deer at the taxidermist still and I got 2 elk tags this year( 1 on the fort apache res and 1 in unit 10 ) so I might need to save some money just incase I need to mount a bull or 2 .
