Southwestern Iowa Taxidermy Shops?

[TheMadCatter]

Does anybody know of any good shops here in SW Iowa? We've never had a mount done so we don't really know who to look into.

Stopped into his shop in Atlantic & scoped his work out about 2 years ago, thought it was pretty good.

Midwest Taxidermy in Council Bluffs. I have had 8 deer done there. Happy with all of them.

Go visit some shops. Look at their work. And I mean look at their work, not the antlers on the mounts. Nature did that. You need to look past the antlers and focus on what he/she has done as a taxidermist. Eyes are critical, as are ears, nose, lips, brisket, grooming, etc... Ask them to point out the strong points of their work. If they aren't willing & happy to show off their work and point out what they are proud of, then be very, very cautious about turning your trophy over to them. Though a high price doesn't guarantee good work, a low price shoul at least ring a loud warning bell.

Have fun "shopping around".
