About Harwell Taxidermy

Harwell Taxidermy is based in Rowlett, Texas, a city on the eastern shore of Lake Ray Hubbard that puts it squarely in the Dallas suburban hunting and fishing community. The studio serves customers across Rockwall and Dallas counties who want a local option without making the trip out to rural North Texas. Rowlett's location near the lake makes it a natural fit for anglers looking to mount a trophy catch alongside the more typical deer work. The business has two reviews on record with a 3.0 rating, so customers should do their own due diligence and call to discuss their specific project.

Services & Process

Harwell Taxidermy offers the standard lineup of services that suburban DFW hunters and fishermen typically need. Fish mounts are a natural focus given the proximity to Lake Ray Hubbard, one of the Metroplex's most popular bass fishing destinations. Deer shoulder mounts are the bread-and-butter service for hunters who bag whitetail on leases east of Dallas. Skull cleaning and antler mounting offer lower-cost alternatives for customers who want a display without the full investment of a skin mount. The studio can also discuss options for birds and small game brought in by local hunters.

Service Area

Harwell Taxidermy serves Rowlett along with neighboring Garland, Rockwall, and Sachse. Customers from the eastern Dallas suburbs regularly use the studio for both fish and game work. The Lake Ray Hubbard corridor brings in a steady stream of anglers from across the Metroplex.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Harwell Taxidermy mount bass caught from Lake Ray Hubbard?
Fish mounts from local lakes are a common request at this studio given its location right on the Rowlett side of Lake Ray Hubbard. Bring accurate measurements and clear photos if you're doing a reproduction mount so the colors can be matched correctly.
What should I know about the studio's 3.0 rating before booking?
A 3.0 rating with only two reviews means the sample size is very small, so it's hard to draw firm conclusions from the score alone. It's worth calling directly to ask about current workload, pricing, and to get a feel for communication before committing your trophy.
Does the studio handle deer mounts for hunters with leases outside the DFW area?
Yes, many suburban Dallas hunters hold leases hours away and still prefer a local taxidermist for convenience. You can transport your capped deer back home and drop it off in Rowlett without needing to find a taxidermist in the area where you hunted.
How do reproduction fish mounts differ from skin mounts?
Skin mounts use the actual fish skin stretched over a form, while reproductions are painted fiberglass replicas made to match your fish's measurements and colors. Reproductions tend to hold up better over time and allow catch-and-release anglers to still get a mount.
What's a typical price range for a whitetail shoulder mount?
Shoulder mount pricing in the DFW area generally falls anywhere from $400 to $700 or more depending on the studio and the complexity of the work. Always get a clear quote upfront before leaving your trophy, since prices can vary significantly between providers.
Does Harwell Taxidermy offer skull cleaning or European mounts?
European skull mounts are a clean, affordable way to display a deer's antlers without the full cost of a shoulder mount. The skull is cleaned, whitened, and mounted on a panel or plaque, making it a popular choice for hunters who want multiple displays from different seasons.
