Restored Taxidermy LLC helps preserve hunting and fishing memories with professional taxidermy services. Andrew specializes in North American shoulder mounts, fish and birds. He is one of the few taxidermists offering life-size mounts and can perform the tasks quicker than others when needed.
It all became a reality when Andrew went hunting in Montana several years ago with three awesome friends. On the very first day, Andrew completed one of his bucket list items by harvesting a large Mule Deer. Then went on to hunt pheasants, grouse, coyotes, ducks, geese and see numerous historical sites in eastern Montana.
While in the field with his outfitter, much talk about life, outdoors and taxidermy evolved. Little do we all know, but taxidermy is more than a revered art, it is a competitive business. No one in or around the Birmingham area was interested in teaching him the craft. So, after a lot of discussions, Andrew's outfitter introduced him to a 3-time World Champion Taxidermist from Montana.
So, after a long career in the Corporate Pharma Industry, Andrew retired and went to Montana to learn the art of taxidermy. Andrew completed several fish he caught, few coyotes, pheasants, grouse he harvested, euro mounts customers brought in and numerous shoulder mounts of Elk, Mule and Whitetail Deer and Antelopes he harvested and acquired. Andrew acquired a massive amount of materials, techniques and knowledge of how keep the process moving forward and maintain the outdoor passion with the craft. Still today, he offers the old school technique as well as numerous new techniques of taxidermy thanks to the personal training.
