About New Age Taxidermy

New Age Taxidermy is located in Angleton, the county seat of Brazoria County, Texas, placing it squarely in one of the state's most active hunting and fishing regions. Angleton sits close to both productive coastal marshes and inland deer country, so local taxidermists see a wide variety of specimens throughout the year. The name suggests a modern approach to the craft, which often means updated techniques, cleaner aesthetics, and more anatomically accurate results than older-school methods. Hunters and anglers across Brazoria County have a locally rooted option without heading into the Houston metro.

Services & Process

New Age Taxidermy covers the core services that Brazoria County sportsmen need most, including whitetail shoulder and full body mounts, coastal fish mounts for species like redfish and snook, and bird mounts for waterfowl taken in the nearby marshes. Shoulder mounts require careful cape handling, form selection, and finishing work to achieve a lifelike result. Fish mounts can be done as reproductions, which are popular for catch-and-release anglers who want a display piece without sacrificing the fish. Habitat displays and pedestal mounts are also possible for customers who want something beyond a standard wall piece.

Service Area

New Age Taxidermy serves Angleton and the surrounding communities throughout Brazoria County, including Alvin, Pearland, Lake Jackson, and Clute. The shop is conveniently located for hunters and anglers coming in from coastal areas and inland hunting leases alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a 'new age' approach to taxidermy different from traditional methods?
Modern taxidermy uses improved tanning chemicals, more anatomically accurate commercial forms, and better reference materials to produce mounts that hold up longer and look more lifelike. The aesthetic tends to be cleaner and more natural compared to older styles that sometimes look stiff or exaggerated.
Can you do a mount for a catch-and-release fish if I don't have the actual fish?
Yes, reproduction mounts are made from fiberglass casts rather than the actual fish skin, so they're a great option for catch-and-release anglers. You'll need accurate measurements and good photos to get the coloring and size right.
What's the best way to transport a deer cape to the taxidermist?
Keep the cape cool and dry, and avoid leaving it in a hot vehicle. If you can't get it to the studio within a day or two, fold it flesh-side in and freeze it in a sealed bag to prevent freezer burn.
Do you offer skull cleaning for deer and hogs?
Skull cleaning is a common add-on service at most Texas taxidermy studios, often done through beetle colonies or boiling and degreasing methods. A cleaned and whitened European mount is a popular, more affordable alternative to a full shoulder mount.
How much deposit is typically required when dropping off a mount?
Most taxidermists ask for a deposit at drop-off, often ranging from 25 to 50 percent of the total cost. It's a good idea to get a written receipt and a clear price quote before leaving your trophy.
Do you work with customers from outside Brazoria County?
Most taxidermists are happy to work with customers from neighboring counties and beyond. Angleton's location makes it accessible from Houston, the Brazosport area, and surrounding rural communities.
