With modern gun season opening tomorrow I wanted to make a few announcements and wish everybody good luck. On account of having a pretty substantial backlog of work at the moment I’ve decided to only take in 35 more shoulder mounts this year. After I hit that limit the only exceptions will be for returning customers. Also, as much as I hate to, I’ll be raising my prices on shoulder mounts to $700.
I’m happy to say that I’m not raising the price of European amounts at all and also won’t be limiting the number of skulls I take in. I like being able to offer an option for the budget minded working folks like myself. Euros will still be $120(like they’ve been the last four years). Unlike shoulder mounts, I don’t have to order any materials, they only require time and a bit of elbow grease. Because of that , they are not at the mercy of suppliers and inflation, so I can keep those prices low.
Finally, if you hunt in Hardin Meade Breckinridge counties you can still bring your deer to me without violating F&Ws CWD quarantine rules. Instead of bringing it to my shop in Bonnieville I can meet you at my family’s farm in Upton (Hardin County side) and do my initial skinning and antler removal there, which complies with the rules. Just call me and we will make it happen.
Best of luck everyone, happy harvest!
