I was driving through Fairfield today and found a place called Caldwell Taxidermy. Has anyone heard of them? __________________ It isn't the catch or the kill that makes for a great outdoor experience but enjoying all that God has created for us.

Hunters that have used his services simply speak up about whether they are happy or not happy with their mount. It's up to the listener to ask the right questions and draw their own conclusion on whether they would trust a particular taxidermy with their trophy. |

i had a mount done by them around 30 years ago. it came out pretty good.
at the time he was the closest place to where i was living. if you were to look at the mount now it sucks but that's from years of neglect and humidity. it's ready to be recaped. __________________ Chicken Parmigiana Pro Staffer
