The Bailey Lion

Here is a life-size Lion that we mounted for Steve Bailey. Steve was on a javelina hunt with his son, when he found a fresh javelina kill. There were lion tracks all around it, so he called a lion guide & they caught it the next day!

Steve brought in a branch that he wanted the Lion to be mounted on. He went with a wall mount, rock base, forked branch, some grass, slight open mouth, walking down hill.






Dall Sheep

Here is an Alaskan Dall Sheep that we just mounted for Miles Sims.

"Flehmen" Mule Deer Mount

Here is a  custom Mule Deer mount that we just finished for Spencer Logan. The antlers came from a buck that Spencers Grandpa shot many years ago in Southern Az.. It was bleached out from sun exposure, so we re-stained it. We then used a skin from a buck that Spencer shot last year, to bring this big ol' desert Muley back to life! Spencer chose a wall pedestal, semi sneak, head up, ears back, with the lip curl to give em' that rut look!
