About Heritage Game Mounts

Heritage Game Mounts operates in San Antonio, Texas, a city of over 1.4 million people that produces a large volume of hunters, collectors, and home decorators who want quality trophy work. Unlike most taxidermists, the business also lists itself under arts and crafts and home decor, which signals a broader creative offering beyond standard hunting trophies. San Antonio's mix of urban professionals who hunt surrounding Hill Country and South Texas ranches creates steady demand for both traditional mounts and decorator-friendly display pieces.

Services & Process

Heritage Game Mounts covers traditional taxidermy work including shoulder mounts, European mounts, and full-body displays for the deer, turkey, and exotic game that San Antonio hunters bring back from surrounding ranch country. The arts and crafts and home decor designations suggest the shop also creates decorative pieces, antler art, and custom display work intended to function as interior design elements, not just hunting trophies. Antler chandeliers, framed skull art, and decorative habitat panels are the kind of work that fits this overlap. Collectors and designers working on lodge-style or rustic interior projects will find more creative options here than at a typical hunting-focused taxidermy shop.

Service Area

Heritage Game Mounts is based in San Antonio and serves clients across Bexar County and the broader South Texas region. The shop's location in a major metro makes it accessible from the Hill Country to the northwest and the South Texas brush country to the southwest, drawing hunters from a wide geographic area.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of decorative taxidermy pieces can I commission?
Decorative options can include antler arrangements, skull art with botanical or geometric treatments, feather displays, and habitat wall panels designed as art installations rather than hunting trophies. If you have a specific vision, bring photos of your space and examples of the aesthetic you're working toward.
Can I get a mount designed to match my home's interior style?
Yes, that's precisely the kind of work that separates a shop with home decor experience from a standard taxidermist. You can discuss finish colors, backing materials, and display orientation to make sure the piece integrates naturally with your existing furniture and wall colors.
Does the shop handle fish mounts for Texas freshwater species?
Bass, crappie, and catfish are common freshwater species throughout the San Antonio region, and most full-service taxidermists handle fish work. Painted replica mounts have become increasingly popular since you don't have to sacrifice the fish, and the paint finish can be matched precisely to the species and individual coloring.
Are there taxidermy options for non-hunters who collect wildlife art?
Absolutely. Collectors interested in antler art, feather arrangements, or decorative skull displays don't need to be hunters to commission work here. Ethically sourced feathers, shed antlers, and legally obtained specimens can all be worked into display pieces for collectors and art buyers.
How do I transport a large trophy safely to a San Antonio shop?
For large antlered deer or exotic species, keep the cape frozen or refrigerated and transport it in a cooler or wrapped in a tarp to protect the antlers. If you're transporting from a distant hunting location, vacuum-sealing the cape before freezing extends your window significantly.
What should I expect to pay for a decorative antler display versus a standard mount?
Decorative pieces vary enormously in price depending on the complexity, materials, and size of the project. Standard whitetail shoulder mounts run $400 to $700 or more in Texas, while a custom decorative commission could cost more or less depending on what's involved. Getting a detailed quote upfront prevents misunderstandings later.
