Mountain goat taxidermist
 
I’m looking for a taxidermist to mount the goat I killed this year, and I’m hoping for some suggestions. I am trying to find a guy with experience doing goats specifically. It’s likely the only goat I’ll ever shoot and I think they make the nicest mounts. If you know a guy who will do a good job let me know please! Thanks guys

I know a few BC taxidermists that are good with goats and they get more experience with the species than most Alberta taxidermists will

Ray Wiens in BC is worth checking out

Where do you live

Brian Dobson or Marco with Sugar Creek.

I would have zero hesitation in recommending Marco at Sugar Creek. He’s done work for me and a few friends in the past and it’s always top notch. He currently has my 2023 Antelope

I would have to suggest Darren at Solitude Taxidermy. Check out his web page, he did my sons 54 inch moose. I seen his displays. Does some great work on all species. You should at least check out his page and talk to him.

I feel like Marco could really mount anything and make it look good. He would be my first choice

Marco Pilon is an amazing person and even more amazing artist. Not just a dollar for him.

He is gonna pump out beauties til his body no longer lets him. Master.

I say give him a go. Grats on getting a mountain goat.

I saw a full body goat mount that Solitude Taxidermy did a couple years ago. I thought it was fantastic.

Thanks a lot guys! Some great suggestions in here. I’ll try to remember to post a picture when I have it completed.

How about a picture of it when you shot it.
