About Bakers Camp

Bakers Camp in Bainbridge, Indiana is a one-stop shop for outdoorsmen in Putnam County, combining taxidermy, butchering, and graphic design services under one roof. With a 4.2-star rating from local customers, it's built a reputation as a practical resource for hunters who want to handle everything after the harvest in one place. Bainbridge is surrounded by hardwood ridges and crop fields that consistently produce quality whitetail deer. That rural setting makes a full-service camp like this one especially convenient.

Services & Process

The taxidermy side of Bakers Camp covers deer mounts, turkey work, and other common Indiana game. The butcher service means you can process your deer for the freezer at the same location where you drop off your cape for mounting, saving multiple trips. Graphic design rounds out the offering, which is useful for hunters who want custom plaques, personalized signage for hunting camps, or branded materials for their properties. It's a rare combination that eliminates the need to visit three separate businesses.

Service Area

Bakers Camp serves hunters and outdoorsmen throughout Putnam County and neighboring counties in west-central Indiana. Customers from Greencastle, Roachdale, and Cloverdale regularly make the trip to Bainbridge for the shop's multi-service setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I have my deer butchered and mounted at the same place?
Yes, Bakers Camp offers both butchering and taxidermy services, which means you can drop off your whole deer and handle both in a single stop. This is a big convenience advantage during the busy firearms season when every hour counts.
What graphic design services are available for hunters?
Bakers Camp's design work covers custom plaques, hunting camp signs, and personalized display pieces that complement your mounted trophies. It's a practical add-on if you want your mount to include a custom nameplate or story panel.
Does Bakers Camp process wild game other than deer?
Many full-service camp operations handle turkey, hogs, and other game in addition to whitetail deer. Calling ahead at (765) 522-3877 will confirm what species and processing options are currently available.
How do I prepare my turkey for mounting?
Keep the bird as intact as possible and avoid cutting the neck skin. Fold the wings in naturally, place the bird in a plastic bag, and refrigerate or freeze it until you can get it to the shop. Freezing whole is generally safer than trying to cape a turkey yourself without experience.
What's the cost difference between a European skull mount and a shoulder mount?
European mounts, which clean the skull and display it with antlers, are typically significantly less expensive than full shoulder mounts. In Indiana, skull mounts often run $100 to $200 while shoulder mounts can range from $400 to $700 or more depending on the shop.
Is Putnam County a good hunting area, and does that affect wait times?
Putnam County has solid whitetail habitat with a mix of agricultural fields and wooded creek bottoms, which keeps local taxidermists busy through the fall and winter. Dropping off early in the season or during the offseason typically means a shorter wait for your finished mount.
