I sent my axis hide to them for tanning. 45 dollars, 6 month turn around.
Anyone ever use them??

They do good work. Not the fastest, but good work at a reasonable price.

ruined my buddies axis hide, they told him he shouldn't have drug it so far. I was with that axis from the time it hit the ground till we skinned it out, NO BARE spot on it.
They are a BULK tanner, they do 90% of the hides for all the Taxidermists in the area, there are only 2-3 tanneries total.

Moyle Mink and Tannery, Heyburn Idaho They do great work. It takes quite a while but well worth it. They have done 2 bison hides, a moose hide, tons of beaver hides and will be doing our nice bobcat and coon from up here. Tons of trappers use them. Anyone with a bison hide should use them, best price and very good work. No green hides though, dried and salted or trapper dried only.

I just picked up my cow elk hide from North Texas Tannery today. They did a great job, and turn around was right at six months which is what I was quoted when I dropped it off. I sure wish I hadn’t left that magnum coyote on the mountain in Wyoming or he’d have gotten rugged too. I’ll use these folks again in the future for sure.

They do good work overall. They use alum in the tanning process and to me the hide is not quite as supple as I would like. Plus it takes almost a year for the smell to go away. Am pleased with no hair loss however.
