About TnT Taxidermy

TnT Taxidermy is located in Ingram, Texas, a small community in Kerr County tucked into the Texas Hill Country along the Guadalupe River. Ingram sits right next to Kerrville, one of the Hill Country's most popular destinations, and the entire area is surrounded by cedar and live oak terrain that supports strong populations of whitetail deer, wild turkey, and axis deer. The Hill Country draws hunters from across Texas and beyond, which means local taxidermists here see some serious trophies. TnT puts a shop in a prime spot for hunters coming off the many private ranches and hunting leases in Kerr County.

Services & Process

Hill Country taxidermists like TnT handle a broad range of species reflecting the diverse game available in Kerr County. Whitetail deer shoulder mounts are the bread and butter of any shop here, but axis deer, fallow deer, and aoudad sheep are also common requests from the many exotic ranches operating in the region. Wild turkey mounts, whether a simple fan display or a full strutting bird, are popular among hunters targeting the Rio Grande turkeys that roam the cedar breaks throughout the county. Skull cleaning and antler mounting round out the typical menu for hunters who want a display without the full cost of a traditional mount.

Service Area

TnT Taxidermy serves customers from Ingram and the greater Kerrville area, drawing hunters from throughout Kerr County and the neighboring Hill Country counties of Gillespie, Bandera, and Real. The shop is conveniently close to Kerrville, making it easy to reach for hunters staying in town or coming off properties along the Guadalupe River corridor. Junction and Fredericksburg hunters also make the drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to take care of my cape in the field before getting to the taxidermist?
Keep the cape cool and dry, and get it to the shop or into a freezer as quickly as possible. In the Hill Country heat, a poorly handled cape can show slippage or hair loss within hours, which limits your mounting options.
Do you work on axis deer and other exotic species from Hill Country ranches?
Taxidermists in the Ingram and Kerrville area work with exotic species regularly because of the large number of exotic ranches throughout Kerr County. Axis deer, fallow deer, and aoudad are all common requests at Hill Country shops.
How do I choose between a shoulder mount and a European skull mount?
Shoulder mounts are the traditional choice and show the animal's full face and neck, but they're more expensive and take up more wall space. European mounts cost less, take up less space, and have a clean, modern look that's become very popular in recent years.
Is it possible to see examples of finished work before committing?
Most taxidermy shops display examples of past work in their studio or on their social media pages. Asking to see samples before you drop off is completely reasonable and gives you a clear sense of the quality you can expect.
Can I get a wild turkey mounted in Ingram?
Yes, turkey mounts are popular throughout the Hill Country. You can choose from a simple fan and beard display, a half body mount, or a full strutting turkey depending on your budget and available wall space.
How long should I expect to wait for my mount to be finished during peak deer season?
During and right after deer season, Hill Country taxidermists often have backlogs that push turnaround times to nine months or more. Dropping off early in the season or calling ahead to ask about current wait times helps you plan your expectations.
