Services & Process

Bermuda Ridge Taxidermy covers the full range of work that suburban and rural Oklahoma hunters bring in each season. Deer shoulder mounts are the most common request, requiring precise measurement for form fitting and careful attention to the facial anatomy. Fish mounts, both skin and replica styles, are popular among anglers who fish the nearby South Canadian River and Lake Thunderbird. The studio also handles bird mounts for turkey and waterfowl hunters active in central Oklahoma.

Service Area

Bermuda Ridge Taxidermy serves Newcastle and the surrounding southwest Oklahoma City metro area. Hunters and anglers from Blanchard, Tuttle, Mustang, and Yukon are all within easy driving distance. The studio's proximity to the OKC metro makes it a convenient option for city-based sportsmen who hunt the surrounding region.

Frequently Asked Questions

What poses are available for a whitetail shoulder mount?
Most taxidermists offer a range of form options including straight, semi-sneak, sneak, and upright poses, each giving the mount a different look and attitude. The right choice often depends on the size of your trophy and where you plan to hang it in your home.
Can I bring in a deer cape that's been frozen?
Absolutely. Freezing a cape is actually one of the best ways to preserve it if you can't get to the taxidermist right away. Just make sure it's sealed tightly in a plastic bag to prevent freezer burn before you drop it off.
Do you mount waterfowl like ducks and geese?
Bird mounts are a specialty for many Oklahoma studios, and waterfowl work requires careful degreasing and feather positioning to get a realistic result. It's worth asking specifically about the taxidermist's experience with waterfowl since it's more technically demanding than mammal work.
How much does a standard deer shoulder mount typically cost in Oklahoma?
Prices vary, but most Oklahoma studios charge somewhere between $400 and $700 for a standard whitetail shoulder mount depending on the studio's experience level and the complexity of the pose. Always get a written quote at drop-off so there are no surprises at pickup.
Is there a deposit required when I drop off my trophy?
Most taxidermists ask for a deposit of 30 to 50 percent of the total cost at drop-off to cover materials and hold your spot in the queue. This is standard practice in the industry, so come prepared when you bring your trophy in.
What if my deer skull needs cleaning as well as the cape being mounted?
Skull cleaning is a separate service from shoulder mounting, and many hunters choose to have both done at the same time. European skull mounts have become very popular as an affordable complement or alternative to traditional shoulder mounts.
