this is an old subject ,do a search and you will find threads on it , from my own experiences i have been quoted return time of 14 months on the last two i had done and it was one day shy of two years when i got them back. my oldest son is getting into taxidermy and i took him a small buck and a doe right after Xmas and my younger son is coming home tommorrow with the mounts . so that is about 2 and 1/4 months
