About Wilson's Taxidermy Studio

Wilson's Taxidermy Studio operates in Warrenville, South Carolina, a small community in Aiken County known for its rural character and proximity to serious hunting land. The CSRA region, which spans the South Carolina and Georgia border near Augusta, draws hunters chasing whitetail, turkey, and waterfowl through long seasons. A studio in Warrenville is well positioned to serve that community with personal, hands-on service you won't find at a large commercial operation. It's a practical choice for local hunters who want their trophies handled close to home.

Services & Process

Wilson's Taxidermy Studio likely covers the core mounts that CSRA hunters need most. Whitetail shoulder mounts are the bread and butter, requiring precise cape preparation, eye detailing, and accurate antler positioning to capture the natural look of the animal. Bird mounts, including turkey and duck work, demand a different skill set where feather arrangement and wing positioning determine whether the finished piece looks alive or artificial. Full body mounts for smaller game like foxes or coyotes are another option for collectors who want a more complete display.

Service Area

Wilson's Taxidermy Studio serves Warrenville and the broader Aiken County area, including customers from North Augusta, Graniteville, and surrounding CSRA communities. The studio is also accessible to hunters crossing over from the Augusta, Georgia side of the region who want local South Carolina taxidermy work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a shoulder mount and a European mount?
A shoulder mount includes the full cape, skin, and glass eyes fitted over a form to recreate the animal's head and upper body. A European mount involves cleaning the skull down to bare bone and mounting just the skull and antlers, which is a simpler, lower cost option.
Do you work on turkey mounts?
Turkey mounts are a common request in the CSRA region, and most taxidermists offer full fan mounts, strutter mounts, or full body displays. Bring the bird in cooled and intact with feathers protected for the best results.
How should I transport a deer cape to the taxidermist?
Roll the cape hair-side in, place it in a plastic bag, and keep it on ice or frozen during transport. Avoid leaving it in a warm truck bed for extended periods, as heat accelerates hair slippage and skin degradation.
Can I request a specific pose for my mount?
Yes, most taxidermists offer several form options and pose variations. Bringing in reference photos of what you're looking for helps the studio match your vision more precisely.
Do taxidermists handle waterfowl like ducks and geese?
Waterfowl mounts are a specialty unto themselves because of the complex feather structure and the need for accurate water or habitat bases. A taxidermist who handles bird work regularly will produce noticeably better results than one who only takes them occasionally.
How do I care for a finished mount at home?
Keep mounts out of direct sunlight to prevent fading and away from humid areas like bathrooms or unventilated garages. Dust regularly with a soft brush and avoid applying cleaning products directly to the skin or feathers.
