Does anyone have good recommendations for a taxidermist around DFW to do some birds? I've got a pair of woodies and I'm looking for quality work at a competitive price.
Also, looking for anybody to go duck hunting with around the area. I've got my spots set out but most of the time my work schedule doesn't line up with my buddies so I end up going alone, which can be a drag. I work 24 on, 48 off at the fire station so a lot of times I go during the week. Shoot me a PM if interested.

Pat McGruder at Avian Arts. Check out his site. Guy does some of the best work in the country. He isn't the cheapest but his work is the best.

Another vote for Pat @Avian Arts. Look him up on facebook, instagram or the internet. You will not be disappointed.

Pat is the man in DFW. I've got two birds he mounted for me 4 years ago and they look as good as the day I brought them home. I was so impressed I took him a woodie just a couple of weeks ago.
Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel
