Hunting and Fishing has had a hold on me ever since I could remember. Some of my earliest memories are of me and my grandpa fishing in the tanks. I grew up without a dad and my grandpa was the male role model I looked up to. He taught me an old fashioned way of life. 

 

When I was a freshman in high school it was time to figure out what I wanted to do the rest of my life. I had three ideas; Wildlife Biologist, Butcher, and Taxidermist. I went with taxidermy because I could do what I love alot faster than that four year college thing. I went to Colorado Institute of Taxidermy Training the summer following graduation. After that I apprenticed in several shops, some good some bad. I have learn alot about business. 

 

For me it all boils down to one thing, "DO WHAT YOU SAY YOUR GONNA DO". I rocked on there for a while and decided I was going to set out on my own. I mastered the art of taxidermy and had a good idea about the business end. Plus I was doing way more work than I was being compensated for. It was just time. This area needs a good quality, fair priced and reliable whitetail taxidermist. Swing by and tell some hunting stories!
