Dave Dooley of DoubleD in Rockwall did a yote, bear, and two bobcats for me. He does good work on predators, very natural facial features

Thanks guys, I’ve had multiple mounts done by Dave. Since this may be the only one I ever do, just looking for options.

I've had a bobcat at God's Creations Taxidermy since 3-15-17. Still waiting, but he does excellent work He has had my bobcat since November 2016 and the only response I ever get is it will be ready in a couple more weeks. At this point I'd be happy to get my $400 deposit and cat back. I'm sure its ruined because of freezer burn by now.

Dang, I dropped my bobcat off with Mark (Gods Creation) 13 months ago. Spoke with him a couple weeks back and he said he is 2 months behind, sounds like 2 years!! What a joke, none of this was on the web when I searched who to take it to or I would have steered clear of him. Sounds like he is happy to take your money then leave you empty handed. Hope I am wrong. Does anyone know if he has even turned a cat out in the last year or so?

He’s had my aoudad for over 2 years. Every time I call about it he says it will be ready in 2 more works( the first call was 6 months ago). If it’s not done in the next 2 weeks this time I’m driving up there and picking it up to take somewhere else. The guy does good work just wish he was more honest about his turn around.

Can’t wait to see how this plays out. Guess I’ll have to make a trip to his shop and talk face to face.

Does anyone know if he has even turned a cat out in the last year or so? yes he has, he posts about every day on several fb hunting pages, im with Franklin517, id be happy to get my 400 and cat back, atleast hes telling yall 2 weeks, hes been telling me 30 days for about 8 months haha, freaking joke man beyond ridiculous, I talked to a lot of people looked around a lot, im a stickler on taxidermy and all signs pointed to him being the cat man, but 2 years is total BS

This is the email response I received this morning. If I get it in March, it will be a 2 year turn around.
"Hi Mark, I apologize for the delay, I’m behind on my bobcats. The business has grown beyond what I could handle in a timely manner. I had hired help last year to help with other mounts but that help is no longer with me. They decided to go out on their own. I won’t allow anyone else to mount the bobcats so I have gotten behind. I just hired another qualified taxidermist who is now handling my whitetail shoulder mounts and I am also building a new facility since I have outgrown the current building I am in. I will have your bobcat done by March 1st. Thank you for your patience."

That is the verbal response I got from him a couple weeks ago as well. At least his story is consistent, time will tell. Thanks Drop Tine.
