I called him and he wants $475 and 8 months. Any better offers out there. That sounds a little high to me.

my brother in law really likes Cole Davis's work, he is in Winona. I am pretty sure deer are 425-500 at just about any quality taxidermist.

Would his name be Billy Kohn?
A real good deer taxidermist is in Cleveland.....Jim Nelson, he charges $350 plain or $385 with a plaque. He takes 5 or 6 months to get one back but is very good. The ones I've seen Cole Davis do are real good as well.

I have been using Jimmy McGuire in Clinton. He did one for me last year ($450 with plaque). Here is a link to his website, if you want to check out his work:
