    Taxidermists near DFW

    I live in DFW, gizmo has my Duiker. Alpine taxidermy seems to do well and they cleared my trophy shipment for me but lead time is long and price isn’t special

    Guns to US

    You have to come through our southern border if want easy access ;) I am surprised it’s hard to get a hunting rifle into the country. However with Canada's continued infringement on gun ownership it’s kind of funny to complain about the US making it hard

    Reasonably priced good US African Taxidermy

    I’m in ft worth and evaluated multiple taxis for my first Africa hunt. I’ve had a few other things mounted and mixed reviews on results (still hanging in my house). Gizmo happened to be in town when I reached out. No regrets so far and I’m certain will have good results

    Reasonably priced good US African Taxidermy

    I have a duiker at @gizmo now. All reviews were good otherwise wouldn’t halve a mount with him. Pricing was fair as well

    Javelina hunt in Texas recommendations

    Looking to add a Javelina to the wall. Any recommendations for a guide in Texas? I’m in DFW but will drive anywhere in the state. Don’t need a 5 star operation, just need javelinas. Thanks, Dale
