Services & Process

Stacked Racks focuses on the kind of work that Hill Country hunters need most. Shoulder mounts and antler mounting are central to the shop's identity, with whitetail deer being the primary species. European skull mounts are a natural fit given the name and the regional demand for clean, minimalist deer displays. Fish mounts for bass and other species caught in Canyon Lake and the Guadalupe River round out the offerings for local anglers. Skull cleaning, habitat displays, and rug mounts are also part of the toolkit for customers with more specific requests.

Service Area

Stacked Racks serves Spring Branch and the surrounding Comal County hill country. Hunters from Bulverde, Boerne, Canyon Lake, and the northern San Antonio area make up a significant part of the customer base. The shop is also conveniently located for hunters coming off properties in the broader Guadalupe River valley.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of deer mounts does Stacked Racks specialize in?
Shoulder mounts and European skull mounts are the core offerings for deer hunters, with antler mounting on plaques also available for hunters who want a simpler display. The shop's Hill Country location means whitetail is the most common request, but exotic deer from nearby ranches are also handled.
How far in advance should I contact a taxidermist before deer season?
Reaching out before the season opens is always a good idea, especially at shops in active hunting areas like Spring Branch. Getting on the schedule early means you're not scrambling to find someone after a successful hunt when everyone else is calling too.
What makes a Hill Country whitetail mount different from working with deer from other parts of Texas?
Hill Country deer often have distinctive antler characteristics shaped by the region's terrain and genetics, and an experienced local taxidermist will know how to display those features well. The coat coloring and body condition of Hill Country whitetail also have regional traits that a knowledgeable taxidermist accounts for.
Can you mount a fish caught at Canyon Lake?
Canyon Lake bass and other game fish are a regular part of the workload for shops in this area. A replica mount is the most popular choice for catch-and-release anglers, and it holds up better in home environments than a skin mount over the long term.
What's involved in a habitat display, and who typically requests one?
Habitat displays incorporate natural-looking background materials like rocks, vegetation, and terrain features to present the mount in a lifelike setting. They're popular with collectors, lodges, and hunters who want a more dramatic presentation than a standard wall mount.
Is it better to mount a deer the same season it was harvested, or can I wait?
Getting the cape to a taxidermist quickly, or properly frozen, during the same season is strongly recommended. Delaying without proper preservation increases the risk of hide slippage and deterioration that can affect the quality of the finished mount.
