These “action sneak” forms by Gene Smith are slick!. Pretty deer put together with one of my own custom made replacement noses.

I’ve been slacking on my posting lately. Still super busy, keeping my head down and pumping out as much work as I can.

Good luck to everyone going out on the greatest opening day ever, Turkey season!

Unfortunately, I am NOT taking any full body turkeys this year. This is mainly due to a huge delay with the freeze dryer that I use, they still have my heads from the 24 and 25 season. So I would prefer to not have three seasons of turkeys on the books.

I will not be available this weekend due to travel ball and my other job. I may consider a few fans and breast mounts, so please give me a call and let me know what you got.

Thank you all for understanding.

Tough weekend in Virginia at their taxidermy association. I knew before I left that this competition would be hard, due to the amount of deer that were guaranteed to show up. Didn’t come home with the gold and that’s ok, wasn’t expecting to as this was my first custom made open mouth cast. I got a VERY thorough critique from the whitetail judge, as well as the waterfowl judge too and thats the most important part. So red ribbons this year for my pieces. However, I did get blues (scores between 90-100) for my habitat/displays. Till next time, back to work and back to the drawing board as usual.

Thank you again to those who allow me to use their pieces for entries, this is one way we as taxidermist can continue to improve our work.
