Kisamore's Back To Nature Taxidermy

At this time, we have reached our quota for the year. We are no longer accepting shoulder mounts for the remainder of the season. You can still call for european mount availability. We'd like to thank you all for another great taxidermy season. See you in 2026!

Friends, this is something I have been hoping to see in Ohio for quite some time. Let's make sure that it happens next November!

Ohio lawmakers are weighing a proposal that could add a constitutional right to hunt and fish, a measure supporters say would preserve part of the state’s economy and heritage. https://nbc4i.co/4r6XFEo?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_NBC4

Happy Friday everyone! It's been a while, but I assure you we are still here! With less than 24 hours to the start of the 2024-2025 Ohio deer season, we just wanted to let you know how things are going on our end.
Like the past few years, we will still be accepting repeat customers only. We value the relationships we've built with you all over the years and at this stage in our lives, it's the only way to ensure we can still provide you with quality work in a timely fashion. That being said, a few things are upcoming this season that may slow us down and/or limit the amount of heads we can take. It's looking like Jeff is going to need shoulder surgery soon and I (Dustin) am in the process of moving, which will ultimately happen right around the peak of the rut (great timing on my part I know). We are making every preparation possible to make sure we get through without interruption, but it will take time.
Our pricing has changed. I've attached a new price sheet to reflect those changes.
We at Back to Nature want to wish you all a successful and safe season ahead. Good luck, and we hope to see you in the coming months!

It's looking to be pretty warm this week, so just a few things to remember if you get your target buck on the ground-
1. DO NOT HANG A DEER BY ITS BACK LEGS WITH BAGS OF ICE IN IT. Bagged ice will melt, leak and make it's way into the cellular tissue of the cape, making it a nightmare to process for a mount or worse, unusable. Instead, freeze some gallon jugs and put those into the chest cavity, wrap the deer in a tarp, and keep it in a cool, shady place until it can be skinned or taken to a processor (which should be ASAP).
2. To the same end, never put a rope around a deer you intend to mounts neck. Even just securing it to an ATV rack for transport can damage the hair.
3. Try to clean up any blood on the face, neck and shoulders as quickly as possible. This will make for a cleaner cape right from the start.
4. When dragging your deer from the field or out of the truck, make every effort to keep the front portion off the ground. A sharp stick or concrete floor can pull hair from the cape that will be VERY noticeable upon completion of the mount.
5. Finally, if you are processing the deer yourself, see the attached skinning video. The process is simple if you've skinned a deer before, and know the proper cuts to make. Good luck out there!

Quick and easy guide to how to make the cuts for a shoulder mount cape for most big game animals.

Welcome back deer season! We've been quiet for a while, but we want everyone to know we are still ready to go for 2023-2024! In our effort to maintain a manageable workload, we will be continuing our repeat customer policy for shoulder mounts. This means if we've done a shoulder mount for you before (european mounts do not apply), you are eligible for continued services. We will also continue to offer european mounts to all. Good luck this year, and we hope to hear from you, our loyal customers, soon!

T-minus 5 days to Ohio Archery Season! We hope you all have your big buck picked out and waiting for you 😉. There has been some speculation that we have fully retired, are no longer taking work, etc., but the fact is WE ARE STILL HERE AND WORKING!!!
With that being said, there are definitely some changes coming this season. The demand for our work, and whitetail taxidermy in general, brought us to the decision to no longer take new customers. Even in doing so, there may also come a point during the season where we are at capacity, and for that we apologize in advance. Increases in materials cost and shipping have left us with no choice but to raise our rate to $650 for a deer shoulder mount. And finally, while we still strive to get you the best quality work at the fastest turn around time possible, we may be limited by the availability of the supplies we need. As always, please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or concerns you may have. Good luck and happy hunting!
