Randy Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Re: Check out this mount Wow, I wonder what a hunt and the taxidermy bill would come out to if you were like me and have to hire an outfitter to hunt moose and bears? One things for sure, i'll never be able to afford it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierhunter Posted February 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Re: Check out this mount I've looked at hunts like those and they run from about 12,000 to 18,000. The taxidermy bill would be right around 16,000 for that. So total you are looking at about 30,000 all day for that. Crazy isn't it. It took him I think 3 straight days to get it done and from what he said straight means all day. They were in a rush to get it to a show they were going to. Now of course that doesn't take into account the tanning portion of it. These guys got it made. They run a very successful business that affords them the ability to do these incredible hunts. The office is like a Cabelas or Bass Pro with all the mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dosse Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Re: Check out this mount Awesome looking mount, but if that mount costs 16000 that seems high. I always figured a mount like that would maybe be 6 to 8 thousand max. Definitely an awesome piece of work though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberlandtaxi Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Re: Check out this mount I would charge 10,000 for just the bear, 16,000 seems reasonable for high quality work such as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toddyboman Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Re: Check out this mount I would think 16000 is a steal!! That is a ton of work and time to do all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
