Headed to WY in early Oct for Antelope; anyone have a recommendation for a taxidermist? I live in Alpharetta and the taxidermist the outfitter uses cost around....... $ 1,100 with shipping!

Thanks in advance!

Fortner in Loganville. Does a great job but you need to give him a time frame when you want it back

I used Sportmaster Taxidermy in Murray County. He did a great job on it.

Another vote for Fortner. Chris will bring him back to life.

McMickens in Cartersville is very good.

Make sure you take care of the hide, antelope has hollow and fragile hair that are easily rubbed out.

Check the Reg’s on transporting the head and cape before driving one back. The CWD Reg’s may make it difficult to bring one back to a GA taxidermist If there is any meat attached to bone or spinal and brain material still attached.

Antelope are not a vector of cwd. So no worries about bringing a whole cape back to Georgia. CWD only effects members of the deer family.

I recommend Chris Fortner. His attention to detail is amazing.
