Good taxidermist close to Omaha/council Bluffs
« on: October 20, 2012, 02:18:27 PM »
I have a pretty good coyote that I have been throwing out the idea of getting the hide tanned or maybe having it mounted.  Do you guys recommend anyone specific or should I just google and choose the closest one?  I will most likely just have the hide tanned.  If you also know prices that would be great.  You can post here or PM me either way.  Thanks,

Thats a pretty far drive, but... depending on price and style its sometimes worth the little extra in gas and time.

I've used a guy in Council Bluffs who does great work. He works on his schedule (read that as don't expect it to be ready when he tells you it will be) but he does great work...eventually. I PM you his phone number.

I know Mitch over at Smokey's Taxidermy and I've seen some pretty impressive examples of his work: http://smokeystaxidermy.com/index.html

He is in Fremont.

I didn't get the #, I did get a few companies names and called and talked to them about it.  Thanks for the advice.  Should be set after this last phone call
