    Issues with the Artistry of Wildlife

    My brother in law and I trusted Dennis with our mounts from our first safari. Though it definitely took time and patience, Dennis finished our mounts and delivered my brother in law's as recently as a month or so ago and mine were delivered prior to that.

    Dennis Harris - Artistry of Wildlife

    Buck Wild...text message or telephone was the method of communication. I know others have had even longer waits and worse experience than us. I also know that in talking with Dennis personally, the truth and extent of what has transpired isn't known by the people that are talking about it...

    Dennis Harris - Artistry of Wildlife

    My brother-in-law and I went on our first trip in the summer of 2018. As most we were super excited and we decided to use Dennis for our taxidermy. As I'm sure most of us know, Dennis nearly died and some of us have had issues ever since with our work that was in his hands. We were no...

    Help! Dennis Harris artistry of wildlife

    I've been in touch with Dennis relatively consistently recently. He has shared photos of my finished mounts and I have delivery scheduled this coming week. Between my brother in law and I we have 13 or 14 animals with him plus some skins.

    Issues with the Artistry of Wildlife

    So...my brother in law and I went on safari in late June of 2018. From that trip, 13 or 14 animals went to Dennis to be mounted. We haven't seen anything yet and have been met with radio silence since January when he said that our mounts were just about finished and were drying. Anyone have any...

    Recommendations on first African mounts please

    Thanks so much for the input and photos so far guys! I really appreciate it. All mounts will be in the basement area and will all likely be on the wall as we entertain quite a bit and have small children who always seem to have friends over running around. Good news is the entire basement has...

    Recommendations on first African mounts please

    Following our first experience hunting Africa, our hides and horns have made their way to The Artistry of Wildlife for taxidermy. Now comes the hard job of choosing mounts/poses. Being a newbie to African mounts I would love some opinions on the best poses for the animals I will have on the...

    SOUTH AFRICA: First African Safari In The Books With Somerby Safaris

    Seeing the BIL's report he posted made me take a look back at mine. I'd sure be lying if I told you I didn't enjoy reliving this hunt everytime I read about it or see pictures! Hides and horns should be here any day and land in the hands of the Artistry of Wildlife studio and I CAN NOT wait to...

    SOUTH AFRICA: First African Safari With Somerby Safaris

    I would certainly second everything MizzouAg had to say. We had a trip that was better than even expected and I definitely give Somerby the credit for that. Hell, once the trip was over I'm not sure if MizzouAg and I, or our wives were talking about the next trip first! I posted my report on...

    Help needed on Sako 375 H&H

    The gun does have the front and rear sight, the bluing appears to be nearly if not flawless and I would call the wood mid grade. It is not overly fancy with figure but also is not.lain and monotone. The pad is a light brown color and says SAKO down the butt. It forms also appear to have the...

    Help needed on Sako 375 H&H

    Please also give me your thoughts on the reasonable price that rifle in good condition (only minor wear on the stock) would generally bring.
