About Rob’s Taxidermy

Rob's Taxidermy is based in Heath, Ohio, a city in Licking County that sits right next to Newark and draws hunters from the surrounding farmland and river bottomlands of central Ohio. The shop holds a 5.0 rating and also connects to hunting and fishing supplies, making it a practical one-stop resource for local sportsmen. Heath's location near the confluence of Licking County's top hunting grounds means the staff here sees a wide variety of Ohio game throughout the season. It's a working shop with real roots in the local hunting community.

Hunting & Fishing Supplies

Services & Process

Rob's covers taxidermy and hunting and fishing supplies under one roof, which is a genuinely useful combination. On the taxidermy side, you can expect whitetail deer mounts, wild turkey mounts, waterfowl, and fish work given the region's popular game species. The hunting and fishing supply side likely carries items like scent control products, archery accessories, and fishing tackle relevant to Licking County's rivers and reservoirs. Having a taxidermist who's also a working hunter or angler means the person handling your mount actually understands what the harvest experience means to you.

Service Area

Rob's primarily serves Heath and neighboring Newark, along with the rest of Licking County. Hunters and anglers from Granville, Pataskala, and the Buckeye Lake area are well within driving range. The shop's location in central Ohio also makes it accessible to customers coming from the eastern Columbus suburbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Rob's carry hunting licenses or just supplies?
It's worth calling ahead to confirm exactly what supplies and services are available in the shop at any given time. Many small taxidermy and supply shops in Ohio carry a rotating selection of gear, and what's stocked can change with the season.
Can I get a fish mount done for a catch from Buckeye Lake?
Absolutely. Buckeye Lake produces plenty of walleye and bass, and a mount is a great way to commemorate a personal best. Bring your fish in as fresh as possible, or freeze it if you can't make it to the shop right away.
What's the typical cost range for a deer shoulder mount in Ohio?
Prices vary by studio and form quality, but shoulder mounts for whitetail deer in Ohio typically run anywhere from $400 to $700 or more depending on the level of detail and finishing. Getting a firm quote before you drop off your animal is always a smart move.
How long does a deer mount take at a shop like Rob's?
Most Ohio taxidermists turn around deer shoulder mounts within six to twelve months, depending on how busy they are during and after deer season. If timing matters to you, ask when you drop off so you have a realistic expectation.
Do I need to cape the deer myself before bringing it in?
If you're comfortable doing it, a properly cared-for cape helps, but many taxidermists prefer to do it themselves to avoid accidental cuts in key areas. When in doubt, keep the whole animal cool and call the shop for guidance before you start cutting.
Can Rob's do a European skull mount instead of a full shoulder mount?
European skull mounts, where the skull is cleaned and whitened for display, are a popular lower-cost alternative to shoulder mounts. They're faster to complete and work well for hunters who want multiple trophies displayed without filling every wall with full mounts.
