He mounted my crab on a beautiful repurposed block of wood. He did a wonderful job and it looked amazing!! I even had a missing piece and he replaced it without it being noticeable. Great spot! Definitely will go to Pete again!!

I brought in a musky and northern pike to get restored. Both had been hanging on the wall at my…read moreparents' house for almost 50 years. Arctic Circle Taxidermy did a fantastic job restoring the fish to their original quality. This included the repair, replacement and/or repainting of many of the fins and cleaning the fish, all to "bring their looks back to life." They did a superb job!! I now live in CT. Arctic went to great effort to ensure these fish were carefully packaged for the journey east - building crates to hold and secure each fish, individually wrapping all fins with bubble wrap and tape, and carefully surrounding the fish with various packing materials. The fish arrived in perfect shape and are now displayed proudly at my house, bringing back wonderful childhood memories. I was very pleased with the quality of Arctic's work and attention to detail. I found their pricing very reasonable and staff quite pleasant to work with. I recommend Arctic to anyone having similar needs.

I am a husband to my beautiful wife, Nicole and father to my three children, Gavin, Savannah and Abby, along with our Golden Retriever, Bella. I have been a sportsman all of my life. Hunting, fishing and trapping is my life. I especially enjoy hunting with my recurve bow. I sent myself through taxidermy school. I attended and graduated from Dan Reinhart's School of Taxidermy in Edgerton, WI. I learned all the latest and up to date procedures and tricks of the trade to produce fabulous works of art from my taxidermy projects. Friends and family are now telling me that the mounts that i produced from school, my first ever true works of taxidermy, were as good or better than any taxidermy work that they have ever had done.

Quality, time, and cost were superior to other taxidermists I've used. Highly recommend!read more

I've used Keith's taxidermy for several years now. He is a master of his craft. I saw a grouchy…read morecomplaint review stating that taxidermy could take up to 2-3 years. While I've had my taxidermy with Keith take as little as 90 days (unheard of in the business) and as long as 14 months, ANY TAXIDERMIST THAT GETS YOUR STUFF BACK TO YOU IN UNDER THREE YEARS IS A MIRACLE WORKER. Behind every taxidermy complaint that they take too long is usually a story of a customer that never said what they wanted or never paid their prior bill, thus ensuring no further work gets started until debts get settled. Just my opinion having dealt with many taxidermists over the years. Keith is great, I recommend him.

I would recommend his work (and have a million times) to anyone who wants to immortalize the memory of a phenomenal hunt through taxidermy.
