About Four Seasons Taxidermy

Four Seasons Taxidermy is located in Georgetown, Kentucky, a Scott County community that's grown significantly in recent decades while still maintaining close ties to the hunting and agricultural traditions of the Bluegrass region. Georgetown sits between Lexington and the outer Bluegrass horse country, and the surrounding landscape includes productive farmland that holds healthy whitetail deer populations. Hunters in Scott County and nearby areas have a local option for preserving their trophies without making the longer trip into Lexington. The name itself reflects a commitment to serving clients through every season of the hunting calendar.

Services & Process

Four Seasons likely handles the full Kentucky hunting season lineup, from early fall deer mounts and archery trophies to late-season waterfowl and small game work. Whitetail shoulder mounts are the bread and butter of any Kentucky shop, involving careful cape preparation, tanning, and hand-finished details on a commercial or custom form. Bird mounts, including duck and goose work for hunters who frequent nearby waterways, require different techniques including wire-supported poses and careful feather preservation. Full body mounts for animals like fox, coyote, or wild boar are also possible for the more ambitious collector.

Service Area

Four Seasons Taxidermy serves Georgetown and Scott County, with easy access for hunters coming from Lexington, Frankfort, and the surrounding Bluegrass counties. The central location between major cities makes it a practical choice for clients from a broad area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a mount done as a gift for someone else?
Absolutely, and it's more common than you might think. If you're having a trophy mounted as a surprise gift, just bring in the specimen and describe what style and size work best for the recipient's space. It helps to know something about where they plan to display it so the pose and plaque size will fit well.
What's the typical cost range for a whitetail deer shoulder mount in Kentucky?
Prices vary by taxidermist and the complexity of the work, but shoulder mounts in Kentucky generally range from around $400 to $700 or more for higher-end custom work. Factors like the size of the deer, the pose selected, and the form used all influence the final price. Always get a full quote in writing at drop-off so there are no surprises at pickup.
How do I pick the right mounting pose for my living room or den?
Think about the height on the wall and the viewing angle first. A straight-ahead pose works well when the mount is at or slightly above eye level in a room where people will see it head-on. More dynamic poses like a sneak or upward look can add energy to a display but need enough wall space around them to look right.
Do you work with duck and waterfowl mounts?
Waterfowl mounts are technically demanding because feathers need careful handling and positioning to look natural. Ducks are typically mounted in swimming or landing poses on a base that suggests water, while geese are often displayed in flight poses with wire support. If you're a waterfowl hunter in central Kentucky, it's worth asking about the shop's experience with bird work specifically.
What happens if my mount is damaged during the process?
Reputable taxidermists take care of your specimen throughout the process, but accidents can occasionally happen. It's worth asking about the shop's policy on damaged or lost specimens before you drop off your trophy. Most professionals will communicate openly if an issue arises and work toward a fair resolution.
Can I request a specific form or supplier for my mount?
Many taxidermists work with a preferred set of form suppliers, but experienced shops can often accommodate requests for specific brands or styles if you have a particular look in mind. Bring reference photos if you have a very specific pose or head position in mind, and discuss it at drop-off so the taxidermist can source the right form before starting work.
