what is the general time period of when you drop off your deer to be mounted,and when you can pick it up?

One year is not an unreasonable amount of time, but I wouldn't worry about turnaround time but more concerned with quality. If the taxidermist does work that you like and can afford, time should come last.

can you recomend someone in the new jersey area?

Wish I could but not any that I know of. If price isn't a problem, ship it down here. If you're interested I can post pics and Pm references.

Oh yea! Check out RJ's website! Sorry RJ, I forgot.
