My outfitter has recommended Trophäendienste for either dip and pack or taxidermy. The reviews on here are mixed and dated. Their pictures on both Facebook and the company website have the appearance of quality work (particularly for Africa), but they lack pictures of common game which I would most likely select for shoulder mounts (i.e. kudu, gemsbok).
I was supplied a pricelist and US references promptly, but have yet to contact the references. I plan on visiting their facility while I'm in Windhoek to make final judgement.

Hi TEX84
My name is Janet van der Merwe and I do Taxidermy work right here on our ranch. I do dip and pack as well. I can collect the trophies at your outfitter. I mostly do just our own clients but recently started to do outsource clients as well. You can go to our website otjandauehuntingsafaris.com for reference photos. You can also contact me for further information.

Our outfitter recommended Trophäendienste and we just received our mounts and skins. We are very happy with the work. The length of time it took was surprising at least to us: we took the game in late August 2013 and we received them 2/13/2015.

You may use Trophaen Dienste and Nyati Wildlife in Windhoek at any time. Both do excellent work on all a plains game as well as Big 5. I have used both of them to satisfaction.Trophaen takes longer due to quantity of work. Handed in Sable and Roan to Nyati mid November 2014. Now ready for collection

I used Hunters Pride out of Witvlei in 2013. www.huntpridetaxidermy.com. Great service and work and they'd work with you to get your trophies from wherever you hunted .I was hunting up near Etosha and they got it without a problem.

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!
