About D & D Taxidermy & Processing

D & D Taxidermy & Processing in Washington, Georgia holds a perfect 5.0 rating, which says a lot for a business in a market where customers take quality seriously. Washington sits in Wilkes County in the Georgia Piedmont, a region known for excellent whitetail deer hunting and a strong sporting tradition that goes back generations. The added processing side of the business is a practical bonus for hunters who want to handle skinning, butchering, and mounting all in one stop. That combination of services makes this shop a convenient full-service option for local sportsmen.

Services

Taxidermy

Services & Process

D & D offers both taxidermy and game processing, which means hunters can drop off a deer and walk away with both venison packages and a mount order placed in one visit. On the taxidermy side, shoulder mounts and European skull mounts for deer are the bread and butter of any Georgia shop, and this one is no exception. Full body mounts for smaller mammals, turkey mounts, and antler mounting are all likely available given the regional game population. The processing side handles field-to-table work including skinning, quartering, and custom cuts for hunters who want their meat ready for the freezer.

Service Area

D & D Taxidermy & Processing serves Washington and Wilkes County, Georgia, along with hunters coming in from the surrounding Georgia Piedmont region. Customers from Lincoln County, Elbert County, and other nearby areas regularly use the shop for both processing and mount work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does game processing involve, and how long does it take?
Game processing includes skinning, field dressing if needed, butchering the animal into cuts of your choice, and vacuum sealing the meat for the freezer. Most shops can have your processed deer ready within a few days, depending on how busy the season is.
Can I drop off a whole deer and have both the meat processed and a mount done?
Yes, and that's exactly the convenience D & D offers by combining both services in one location. Just let them know at drop-off that you want a mount so the cape is handled carefully during the skinning process.
What's a European skull mount, and how is it different from a shoulder mount?
A European mount displays only the cleaned, whitened skull with antlers attached, while a shoulder mount includes the full shoulder and neck covered in the tanned hide. European mounts are popular for their minimalist look and lower price point compared to traditional shoulder mounts.
How do I know the mount will match what my deer actually looked like?
Taking clear photos of the deer right after the harvest, especially close-ups of the face and coloring, gives the taxidermist reference material to work from. A good taxidermist will also use anatomy references and species-specific forms to get the proportions right.
Does the 5-star rating mean I can trust the quality of the work?
A perfect rating reflects customer satisfaction, and while one review is a small sample, it tells you that someone left happy enough to take the time to say so. The best way to build confidence in any taxidermist is to ask to see examples of completed work before you commit.
Are antler mounts available for sheds or non-typical racks?
Antler mounting involves attaching the rack to a wooden panel or medallion for wall display and works just as well for shed antlers as for harvested deer. Non-typical racks with unusual points or mass can make especially striking displays and are handled the same way as standard mounts.
