About Three Springs Taxidermy

Three Springs Taxidermy is located in Carrollton, the seat of Carroll County in eastern Ohio, a region where hunting is a serious part of local culture. Carroll County sits in the heart of the Appalachian Plateau, with rolling timber and farmland edges that consistently produce quality whitetail deer and wild turkey harvests each season. This studio serves a community that takes its trophies seriously, from first bucks to mature buck scoring potential that draws hunters from well beyond the county line.

Services & Process

Three Springs handles deer shoulder mounts, which involve skinning and preserving the cape, fitting it over a sculpted form, and finishing the eyes, nose, and mouth with painted details that bring the mount to life. Fish mounts for species like smallmouth bass and channel catfish from Carroll County waters are another common service. Skull cleaning strips bone down cleanly using maceration or beetle processes, producing a display-ready euro mount. Antler mounting options include simple wall panels and more decorative medallion-style displays.

Service Area

Three Springs Taxidermy serves Carrollton and Carroll County, along with hunters and anglers from neighboring Tuscarawas, Harrison, and Columbiana counties. Eastern Ohio's rural hunting communities don't always have a local option close by, making Carrollton a regional hub for quality taxidermy work. It's a natural stopping point for sportsmen across the hill country of eastern Ohio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to care for a deer cape before bringing it to the studio?
Cool the cape down quickly after harvest and avoid letting it sit in a warm truck bed for hours. If you're more than a day out from dropping it off, salt the hide generously or freeze it to prevent hair slippage.
Do you mount fish from Carroll County lakes and streams?
Local fish species including bass, catfish, and crappie are all workable for mounting. Keeping the fish cold and moist, rather than frozen with freezer burn, helps preserve the skin and scales for a better result.
What does a euro skull mount cost compared to a shoulder mount?
Euro mounts are significantly less expensive than full shoulder mounts, typically a fraction of the price depending on the animal. They're a popular choice for hunters who want multiple trophies displayed without the cost of traditional full mounts.
How long will a finished mount last if properly cared for?
A well-made mount kept out of direct sunlight and away from humidity can last for decades. Dusting regularly and avoiding damp or basement storage goes a long way toward preserving color and structural integrity.
Can you create a habitat display for a bird or small animal mount?
Habitat displays incorporate natural elements like branches, rocks, and grasses to create a scene around the animal. They're particularly popular for bird mounts and add a lot of visual interest to the finished piece.
Do you accept work from out-of-county hunters who harvested animals elsewhere?
Yes, the origin of the animal typically doesn't matter for the mounting process. Just make sure any out-of-state game was legally harvested and that you have the required documentation if applicable.
