I was able to attend the Michigan Taxidermist Association Convention this past weekend and it was an amazing opportunity to learn! Not only did I attend multiple classes to learn further about mounting whitetail, predators, birds, and habitats, but I also entered a piece in the competition for the first time. My daughter shot a doe last year so this piece was very special to me. I learned a lot with a 1:1 critique session and hope to do even better next year! I received a second place ribbon which was pretty exciting and hoping to strive for even better next year! I’m excited to start applying the new techniques I learned to my current mounts and can’t wait to hopefully enter more pieces next time! 😁
