McLaughlin's Taxidermy in PA A+++

blackheel · 03-19-2008, 11:19 AM

Just go my caribou back from Brian McLaughlin of McLaughlin's Taxidermy in Wapwallopen, PA and WOW what a great job. He was a pleasure to work with, had great rates, and a terrific turnaround time (5 and half months). Just for reference the artificial velvet was done by another taxidermist, Brian Peterson of Cedarcreek Taxidermy in Missouri. Hope you enjoy the photo!

Congrats on a gorgeous trophy, and the mount looks great!!!! Its hard to find a great taxidermist, I find that most are good. I'm lucky that the guy I use is great, his turn around time is longer then most, he more expensive then most (you get what you pay for), but I'm lucky he is just 10 mins from me. Late summer I should have my 2 ILLINOIS bucks back
