I was pretty against these to start but I'm starting to think Maybe I need one of my own.

The new window graphics went up today and I couldn't be more ecstatic. On the outside they may just look like a nice window design but for me they are a giant milestone that reflect hardwork, hours of learning, personal sacrifice, and just such a feeling of personal accomplishment.

May 1st marks 5 years since I took a huge leap of faith and started Lukes Taxidermy from my garage. I couldnt have done it without the help of my mentor Dave Harrington who encouraged me to go for it as he trained me in taxidermy. Also, the support of my loving wife Cassaundra Schnoor who has been the best team player and picked up the slack to keep things rolling on the home front. She was such a big piece in helping us launch this journey that has forever changed the trajectory of how we will be able to raise our family and spend our future.

I felt like a crazy person when I started. Leaving a secure well paying job of 10 years. But that was just it, it was just a job. If you have an idea or a passion I encourage you to start today, no matter how small. We spent 5 years in out garage! Taking hundreds of projects through my garage door, if my neighbors didnt know me better they would have thought I was dealing. It all starts with a Yes.

Attention New & Current Clients

My customers are one of my highest priorities, 2nd to my Family.
April 29th our wonderful baby boy Cade was welcomed to our lives. For the next couple weeks I will be in and out of the shop as I prioritize my family first.

You will still be able to contact me and I am still available to accept all turkeys, but it will have to be by appointment. We will still be collecting Bear mounts, but no more rugs. At this time I am not sure if I will continue to do rugging as I dont feel like I can produce them in a responsibly timely manner to my clients.

Thank you all for your understanding and if I do not answer at 541 580 7009 please text my personal at 559 392 4334.
