Services & Process

Long Creek Taxidermy handles the full range of preservation work hunters and anglers bring through the door. Whitetail shoulder mounts are a staple service, involving careful skinning, form selection, and hand-finishing to capture a lifelike pose. Fish mounts, whether bass, catfish, or crappie from nearby Arkansas waters, require skilled painting and texture work to replicate the original coloring. Skull cleaning and antler mounting round out the offerings for those who want a cleaner, more minimalist display from their harvest.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a whitetail shoulder mount take at Long Creek Taxidermy?
Most shoulder mounts take anywhere from four to eight months depending on the studio's current workload and the complexity of the work. It's worth asking for a specific timeline estimate when you drop off your cape so you know what to expect.
What should I do with my deer cape before bringing it in?
Keep the cape cool and get it to the taxidermist as quickly as possible after the harvest. If there's going to be a delay, freeze it in a plastic bag, making sure not to fold the face in a way that could damage the hair or ears.
Can Long Creek Taxidermy mount fish from Arkansas lakes and rivers?
Yes, fish mounts are a common request in this part of Arkansas, where bass, catfish, and crappie fishing is popular. Bring in the fish fresh or well-chilled, and a replica or skin mount can be created from it.
Does the studio do skull cleaning for deer or other animals?
Skull cleaning is a popular option for hunters who want a natural, low-profile display rather than a full shoulder mount. Methods like beetle cleaning or boiling produce clean, odor-free results that display well on their own or alongside antlers.
How much does a typical deer shoulder mount cost in Arkansas?
Pricing varies by studio and mount complexity, but deer shoulder mounts in Arkansas generally run between $400 and $700. It's best to call Long Creek Taxidermy directly at (870) 280-9485 for current pricing on specific services.
Do I need to make an appointment or can I just drop off my animal?
Calling ahead is always a good idea, especially during peak season in the fall when many hunters are bringing in work at the same time. An appointment ensures the taxidermist is available to properly document your specimen and discuss the project with you.
