I just picked up my black bear today. Turned out awesome. Austin and Aaron really know their craft. They made some suggestions that look great. I will be back.

“Highly recommend Aaron & Austin at Stehling’s! Gave them 5 stars only because I can’t give them any more! They recently did a full strut turkey for me and it turned out amazing! Their detail is second to NONE! They absolutely knocked it out of the park! I WILL be back! “

” Just wanted to drop a follow up thank you for the fantastic job you and your staff did on the turkey, excellent work.  When I had time to look at everything closely, I could see the attention to detail on all parts including the head, eyes, tail, and wings that I had not seen on other mounts of the same type.  I only had it on top of the gun safe currently until I mount the board on the wall for hanging, but have had many compliments how nice it looks.”

The brothers Stehling are good people, have a great shop, and do really good work. My wife is not a fan of taxidermy. However, she is so impressed with the work that my bear will be hanging in a public area of our house rather than with the other mounts in my basement office . Enough said.

I brought Austin and Aaron the biggest buck I may ever harvest in my lifetime within a hour after loading it in the truck. I made many phone calls on which taxidermist to take it to. Glad to say, everyone had mentioned and told me to go NO WHERE but Stehlings. The peice of very detailed work I got back made the experience the best. These gentleman were constantly sending me updates and letting me know how the process was going along the way. This buck will now be attending many expos in the near future thanks to Aaron and Austin. From that point forward.. every trophy I plan on remembering for a lifetime will be going to Stehlings Taxidermy.

I was referred here by one of my hunting buddies. Within seconds of walking in their shop, I knew I was in good hands. The dozens of incredible pieces hanging on the wall speak for themselves.

I brought Austin and Aaron two ducks: a drake wood duck and a bull canvasback. They genuinely care about their customers. They sat down and asked for the stories behind both birds before guiding me through my options. They were awesome to work with and went above and beyond to make sure I was getting what I wanted.

I feel so fortunate to have two world class taxidermists less than two hours from my house. The quality of their work is second to none. I couldn’t be happier. I’ll never take a bird anywhere else.

Amazing work done on my dog’s first retrieve. Absolutely stunning mount. These guys work with you to preserve your trophy exactly as you want it. Easiest 5/5 stars I’ve ever given.

Great work, great turn around time. Very detailed work and great with suggestions/ideas on mount position etc. I will absolutely use them for my next mount!!!

I’ve had two crappies done by them and both are way above my expectations. Amazing quality look as if they just came from water. Thank you I will be back.

The paint job on my crappie looks like the fish is still alive. I would recommend them to anyone I know. An amazing job.
