Frequently asked Questions
Providing you with all the details
What Species do you work on?
The Chase Taxidermy Studio specializes in whitetail and mule deer, along with turkeys. We can European mount almost all North American game animals including bear, boar, elk, antelope, alligator, etc.
can i give you ideas on how to mount my animal?
Absolutely! If you have photos of a mount you like, this will help me create exactly what you're hoping for or offer suggestions based on your particular species or condition the animal is in (like how to avoid bullet holes or tears).
I shot a turkey and want it mounted, what should I do?
For instructions on how to prepare your turkey for us, visit our Turkey Mount & Fan Display page.
I don't feel comfortable skinning my deer for a shoulder mount, can you?
Yes, absolutely. If you don't feel comfortable skinning your deer, we will skin it for you for a $50 fee. Making a mistake while caping out your deer can result in more cost or not being able to utilize that cape for your mount at all, if cut too short. For more detailed skinning instructions, visit on our Shoulder Mount page.
Is a Deposit Required?
Shoulder mounts and full-body turkey mounts require a non-refundable deposit of 50% when dropping off. Final payment is due when picking up your finished mount.
How soon do i get my mount back
At the time of drop off, we will discuss timing and where I'm at. I work extra hard to ensure your mount is back to you when I tell you or before. For European Mounts (deer only), there is an expedited service available that will ensure you get your finished skull back in 2 weeks or less.
What information will you need from me?
Your name, address, phone number, hunting license number, species, date harvested and your signature.
