Next 3 whitetail due up in the rotation: Jim Lilly, Joey Granat, and Chuck Land. Iām hoping to get 2 of those mounted this week, if not all 3. Then a few ducks next week and 1 or 2 more whitetail, then weāre done with 2024 gun season deer! šŖš¼ ... See MoreSee Less
Hereās the second buck to that father-son double up I posted about a few days ago. Congratulations, Bob!
Yesterday I got a handsome mule deer mounted up, but today Iām headed to Erie with Ashley for a minor foot surgery that will have me off my feet today and hobbling around for the next week and some change.
If you plan on swinging by in the next 2-3 days, please give me a shout on here or on my cell before stopping by. I plan on continuing work, but itāll be slow going for the next few days. ... See MoreSee Less
Iāve had folks walk in my shop, see huge sets of antlers and say something like, āPshhh, I donāt even know why Iām getting my buck mounted. Itās tiny compared to that!ā
Those comments are like nails on a chalkboard to me. As long as a harvest means something to you, whether it be the size of the rack or the story behind it, that is all that matters.
Thursday I mounted this handsome young buck for a fella who lives in Cambridge Springs. Iāll be piecing together his dadās buck this weekend. I believe this is another example of a father-son, same day double up. Thatās pretty special. And Iām tickled to be able to help save those memories for the Wilt family
Time to knock out a little work! Then Iāll be spending the rest of the day with Ashley. Happy Valentineās Day to all of my followers šš¦ ... See MoreSee Less
The last buck I got mounted I can honestly say I would not have had it mounted if not for the circumstances I got the deer under. Yes it was my best Buck to date. But money was so tight I didn't know how I would be able to do it. But I knew it would be my last hunt ever on the property in NY. (I knew it would be the last buck I would ever get with my uncle on the phone as I shot it. ) I knew he would not survive to the next hunting season and the property would be sold. I managed to borrow money from other family members so I could get it done. I already had several mounts that I had gotten while hunting with him or from his properties. But this last one means so much more as it was the last time I was able to share a hunt with him even being over the phone.
If you measure the merit of a trophy by the size of the rack then you've missed the whole point of being there.
Exactly,well said
Way to go Kevin and Bob.
Very Very true ! It’s about all the moments and memories ā¤ļøš¦šŖš¼
Father-son same day double up days are special no matter how big the racks are! Here's our archery bucks from the same day, my son's first ever buck too.
I’ve mounted 3 does now. The first one was my first ever doe harvest, the second one was the first deer i ever shot up at my grandparents, and the 3rd one was technically for competition but it was still a cool experience. I’ll probably end up mounting more does, and the next one will probably be when i shoot one with my dad’s flintlock. I’m all about the memories behind a mount! I haven’t shot a buck over 114” but i have all of them mounted so far š¤£
Hear it all the time, "ah it's not big enough to mount I'll wait till I get a big one" I mount all my deer š haha but I'm the taxidermest
Totally Agree!! š
Any deer you take is a trophy with memories you will remember the rest of your life
Tomorrow Iām taking a break from mounting to get some duck parts ordered, do some finish work, and prep a few more skins. Then back to mounting on Friday šŖš¼ ... See MoreSee Less
One of my A1 clients sent me this little video of his trophy room after taking a black bear mount home from the 2024 season. Talk about a beautiful space with some impressive trophies!
Thank you, Elias Raber for trusting me with so many critters over the past few seasons! šš¼ ... See MoreSee Less
Impressive!!! Congratulations on some great trophies and a million memories
Impressive Elias Raber !
WOW!!! Very impressive for sure Elias!! Just curious if you'd share the Outfitters you got the Mulie or Elk or self guided?? I have points built up for Wyoming. Thanks
I donāt solicit reviews often, but if Iāve done work for you and you have a moment to spare, please consider leaving a review on either Facebook or Google (or both). I currently have 5 on google and 10 on Facebook.
Google reviews are extremely important when it comes to accruing new clientele. When a business has more google reviews they become more relevant in searches such as, ātaxidermists near meā.
Facebook reviews are also important, as my business page is more likely to be āsuggestedā to someone if it has a bunch of great reviews. Plus it shows everyone who views my page that I do quality work.
Thank you in advance to anyone who takes the time to leave a review. And if you donāt⦠donāt worry. I donāt hold grudges for long š š¤£ ... See MoreSee Less
Getting people to actually leave reviews can feel awkward and slow, even when they love your work. I went through something similar and started using HiFiveStar to gently nudge happy clients in one place without it feeling pushy. It helped keep reviews coming in and made the whole process a lot easier to manage.
