Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after harvesting should I bring my deer cape in?
You should get your cape to the taxidermist as quickly as possible, ideally within 24 hours of the harvest. If you can't make it right away, freeze the cape and skull together in a plastic bag to prevent slippage and spoilage.
What is a European mount and how does it differ from a shoulder mount?
A European mount is a skull-only display where the skin and tissue are fully removed, leaving a clean white skull with antlers attached. A shoulder mount preserves the skin, cape, and head in a lifelike pose on a form, giving a fuller, more traditional trophy look.
Can Beam Taxidermy mount fish caught locally?
Yes, fish mounts are a standard service for local anglers working the Lampasas River and nearby lakes. Most taxidermists work from measurements and photographs, so you don't have to sacrifice the fish itself if you plan to release it.
How long does a typical deer mount take to complete?
Most deer shoulder mounts take anywhere from three months to over a year depending on the taxidermist's current workload and the time of year. Busy hunting seasons in the fall mean longer queues, so ask about estimated completion when you drop off.
What should I do if I want a specific pose for my mount?
Bring reference photos of the pose you have in mind when you drop off your trophy. A good taxidermist will walk you through available forms and help you pick an option that matches the animal's natural posture and the space where you plan to display it.
Does taxidermy work come with any kind of guarantee?
Most reputable taxidermists stand behind their craftsmanship and will address issues like cracking, paint fading, or hide separation. Ask about their policy when you drop off, since terms vary by studio and service type.
