Taxidermist central/southern iowa?

[BBD Big Buck Down]

Was wondering if you guys know of any good taxidermist around central iowa or even southern iowa? Anywhere from ames area down to osceola area. Also wondering on prices of the shop and if you happen to have pics of some of their work that'd be great.

Terry Hinegardner, North Star Taxidermy, in Montour does an awesome job. Charges $428 including tax

Rob Howard Howard Taxidermy Ankeny 964-3577, cell 360-5234. Not the cheapest or the fastest but I have mounts 16+ years old that look like the day I picked em up!

Marvin hoch, Melcher Dallas, did one for me, awesome work. His work will be seen on alot of mounts at the deer classic. Mine was higher priced then some others , but his is a total work of art

 

[Liveinbarn]

I was thinking Marvin as his name , it could be marlin. I don't know how to attach photo

 

[msauer933]

I think it's Marlin...at least that is how I have it in my address book. Two years ago it was $535 for a shoulder mount. If you pay the total up front he will move your mount to the front. He did great work for me. He doesn't advertise. If you need a number pm me.

X2 on Chris Hoskins. He's out of Luther. Top notch dude and does great work. Same ball park price wise as everyone else.

Not to start anything but Rick Whitaker did the Luvsten buck.

I think the Luvsten buck was done two or more times for various reasons.
