Services & Process

Springfield-area hunters pursue whitetail deer, black bear, turkey, and small game across Hampden County's varied terrain, and a full-service taxidermist here handles the range of trophy and mount work that comes from those pursuits. Shoulder mounts require careful hide preparation, form selection based on your deer's measurements, and detailed finishing to restore the animal's natural appearance. For clients interested in bear work, rug mounts involve tanning the full hide with the head and paws attached and mounting it on a felt backing for display. Fish mounts from local rivers and ponds are also available for anglers looking to preserve a notable catch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a taxidermist in Springfield handle black bear mounts?
Yes, bear mounts including full rugs and shoulder mounts are available through taxidermists serving the Hampden County area. Black bear are hunted in western Massachusetts, and a local studio familiar with the species can guide you through pose options and finishing choices.
How do I transport a deer head to a taxidermist in the city?
Keep the capped head cool in a cooler with ice or store it in a refrigerator until you're ready to transport it. Place it in a sealed plastic bag to contain moisture and avoid odor during the drive, especially on warm days.
What's a rug mount and how is it different from a full-body mount?
A rug mount uses the full tanned hide laid flat with the head and paws attached, usually mounted on a shaped felt backing for wall or floor display. A full-body mount positions the animal in a three-dimensional lifelike pose using an internal form, which requires more space and typically costs more.
How long does a bear rug mount take to complete?
Bear rug mounts generally take eight months to over a year because of the extensive tanning process required for thick bear hides. The tanning stage alone can take several months, which is why patience is essential for this type of project.
Is it legal to mount a deer killed in Massachusetts without a tag?
No, Massachusetts law requires that legally harvested deer have a valid tag attached. A reputable taxidermist will ask to see the tag or harvest documentation before accepting the specimen, and working with an unlicensed take puts both the hunter and the studio at legal risk.
Can I request a specific pose for my mount?
Yes, most taxidermists offer multiple form options for common species, ranging from upright alert poses to turned-neck or aggressive expressions. Bringing reference photos of poses you like helps the studio understand your vision and select the right form.
