Services & Process

Sportsman's Taxidermy offers taxidermy services suited to the game hunters and anglers in the Belton and south Kansas City area bring home. Deer shoulder mounts are the bread and butter of most Missouri taxidermists, involving skinning, fleshing, preserving the hide, and fitting it to an anatomical form. Turkey mounts, full-body predator mounts, and fish work are also common requests from hunters in Cass County. Antler plaques and skull cleaning give customers budget-friendly alternatives for displaying smaller or incomplete trophies.

Sportsman's Taxidermy serves Belton, Missouri and the surrounding communities in Cass County and south of Kansas City. Hunters from Raymore, Grandview, and the broader south metro area are within easy driving distance. The shop's location along the I-49 corridor makes it a practical drop-off point for many local sportsmen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after the harvest do I need to get my deer cape to a taxidermist?
The sooner the better. If you can't get there within a day or two, freeze the cased hide flat to prevent any hair slippage. Never leave a fresh cape in a warm vehicle or garage for extended periods.
Does the shop handle both deer and turkey mounts?
Most Missouri taxidermists, including shops in the Belton area, handle both species regularly since they're the two most popular game animals in the state. Call ahead to confirm availability and current pricing.
What size form should I request for my deer mount?
The taxidermist will measure the neck circumference and eye-to-nose length of your deer to select the correct form size. You don't need to know this in advance; just bring in the cape and skull plate.
Can I request a specific pose for my mount?
Yes, most taxidermists offer a range of form poses including upright, semi-sneak, and full sneak for deer. Bringing in a photo of a pose you like can help the studio match your vision.
Is there a deposit required when I drop off my trophy?
Nearly all taxidermy shops require a deposit, typically 30 to 50 percent of the total cost, at the time of drop-off. This covers the cost of materials ordered specifically for your project.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the finished mount?
Talk directly with the taxidermist as soon as you see an issue. Most reputable shops will work with you to correct problems before you take the piece home. Clear communication at drop-off about your expectations helps avoid issues.
