I went on an Axis hunt in May and had the guide take it to Double Nickel Taxi in New Braunfels. They did really good work and were pretty reasonable on price and had really good turnaround. Got him back in 4 months.

Animal art is the only shop I will use

Dale is a great taxidermist

Circle S in Helotes is good, Roxanne has done many mounts for me.
Eddie's Taxidermy on the north side of town is also very good.
I need to check out Animal Art

I've seen just about every shop in town, animal art is top notch, as is verrips in la vernia.

Dales mounts are so good they make my other mounts done by other shops look like crud

You need to think twice. I just picked up an Aoudad. Very disappointed.

Here's several photos of a velvet Axis that I killed this May and took to Keep It Real Taxidermy in Castroville. Corey Burris did a great job and his t/a time was 6 months. His business # is 830-931-3727. Baker

Dissapointed how? Dale has done quite a bit of work for me and they all came out great.

John at Double nickel is great. Life-like work and quick turnaround
