Here at Soggy Bottom Taxidermy we strive to bring you the most lifelike recreation of your trophy by using the best materials available. We are committed to portraying the animal as anatomically accurate as possible. We do this by constant field research, reference materials, & continuing education on the most current taxidermy methods. 

Thoughts of the very moment that you harvested the animal will be fresh in your mind as you admire the quality craftsmanship that goes in to every mount we do. We tan all of the skins that we mount utilizing a commercial tannery or in house. From deer to bears to small game to birds & fish we use only the best materials to portray the animal as it once was. Details that are not usually noticed such as the correct color of a deer’s nose or the angle of a hog’s ear or the spot pattern on a large mouth bass are the things that show we go the extra mile to give you a quality mount.

Remember that really good work takes longer than sloppy work. This applies to taxidermy as much as anything else. We will produce a mount for you that will bring years of enjoyment. It takes time to meticulously prepare & tan skins and produce the right details, such as anatomically correct eyes, noses, posture, & hair patterns of the animal. If sufficient time is not allowed for preparing, mounting, & drying the final product will reflect this. The old adage, "you get what you pay for" often applies to taxidermy work. The taxidermy process may seem slow, but in fact it is very complicated and it is not wise to rush.  Every mount, weather large or small, receives the same attention to detail.  This makes your trophy a work of art.  Quality work requires time, skill and talent.  The time spent waiting for your trophies will be worth it.

When searching for a taxidermist you want someone that possesses knowledge of the particular animal but also a willingness to make it as lifelike as possible. A certified taxidermist, as we are, means we have met certain criteria to become certified. This is an often over looked quality when searching for a taxidermist. Think of it like this. You need a lawyer. Would you go to a BAR certified lawyer or just grab a guy from “Joe’s Law School”? Then why trust your trophy to just anyone? Take it to a certified taxidermist that you know has the qualifications to do the job correctly. Ask if the taxidermist is in fact certified. Remember that you are paying not only for your trophy to be mounted, but also for the knowledge & talent that the taxidermist has worked long and hard to develop. 

Don't be afraid to shop around for a good taxidermist. Take some time and visit different taxidermy studios. Ask questions, compare work.  A quality driven taxidermist will have actual mounts for you to see. Quality taxidermy looks good and should last a lifetime when cared for properly. Take the time to invest in your mount so you will find joy in displaying it for years to come. After all, you’ve invested time & money to obtain the animal, why skimp now? 

You may have noticed that our name & logo have changed just slightly. We are now Soggy Bottom Taxidermy & Adventures. We are still the same quality company you have always had available for your taxidermy needs but we now are offering help with booking hunts in North America & Africa. We have been to Africa and have researched the animals & their anatomy & have the experience necessary to recreate your African trophy. Hunting in Africa does not cost as much as you may think. African adventures can be less expensive than hunting here in the U.S., Canada, or Mexico. We are able to get your trophies back home as well as provide the taxidermy information and services you will need. Please be sure to visit our Africa section for more information. We are currently building our outfitter base for North American hunts as well. These hunts include some of the most sought after game species including...Elk, Mountain Goat, Sheep, & Cougar just to name a few.

We are full time taxidermist. This is not a hobby for us. We are here to serve you whether you live close by our surrounding area which includes Savannah GA, in the Chatham County area, Rincon GA, in the Effingham County area or Statesboro GA in the Bulloch County area, and all points near and far.
