CUSTOMIZE YOUR MOUNT
Most taxidermists offer you just one option for your skull or turkey mount - whatever is easiest. At Jim Dandy, our goal is to make the mount that you want, not what we think is best. There are almost endless possibilities for designing your mount. Have an idea for your mount? Let's talk.
PRE-MANUFACTURED FACEPLATES

Our pre-manufactured faceplates for deer skulls are hand-made by Wood Chuckles Woodworking in Floodwood, Minnesota. Our faceplate designs are totally original and make for a great mount with a traditional look. Even if you go with the traditional look, you'll still have a one of a kind mount. Some small customizations are available for pre-manufactured faceplates. Pre-manufactured faceplates are available in oak and cedar. Completed mounts start at $125.
CUSTOM FACEPLATES

The brightest white skulls are complemented by a customized faceplate to create a totally unique look that will memorialize your hunt and look stunning on your wall. We'll work with you to create the perfect design using the perfect materials. We can also do custom wood burning and laser engraving that could include your name, the date of the harvest, or even a photograph (some restrictions apply). Custom faceplates start at $150 for a completed mount.
LASER ENGRAVING

Custom faceplates can be laser-engraved with almost anything you can imagine. Record your name on your mount, the name of your deer (if applicable), the date of your harvest, or any kind of image or words you'd like. We can even include a photograph. (Note: not all photographs are conducive to laser engraving. Talk to Jim Dandy to see if your photo will work.) With laser engraving, the possibilities are endless! Add laser engraving to your mount for $25.

PREDATOR/SMALL GAME MOUNTS

Jim Dandy's love for skull mounts started with predators and small game. If you're a trapper or predator or small game hunter, turn your harvest into a stunning mount to share your passion. Coyote, bobcat, fox, raccoon, opossum, ground hog, beaver, muskrat, squirrel, rabbit, snapping turtle, and more. Jim Dandy will work with you to get the exact look you're going for. For an additional fee, Jim Dandy will take care of skinning your animal and removing the head. Predator and small game mounts start at $75.
