Has anyone ever used this taxidermy service based in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe? I've got a trip planned for late July and am planning on using this service unless I hear alot of complaints.

I've used them on three occasions and have been very happy with their work. I have animals there now. I have also visited their operation and was very impressed!!! Have a great hunt. John W

Glad to hear you were satisfied with Taxidermy Enterprises. Plan on using them as well for my work. Question-how long does it take to have the taxidermy work completed then shipped back to you. Also if I may, could I ask how much the shipping charges were. Plan on shipping to Atlanta GA, using Coppersmith to handle import, and will pick up myself at the customs facility.

I have used both them and Matabeland Taxidermy, also in Bulawayo. No problems.

Bobga I believe that turnaround time for the Taxidermy Enterprises was about ten months. I can't seem to locate my shipping costs but I do remember that the whole package was a bit cheaper than the alternative of having the capes shipped back and then using my normal taxidermist. You may get off quite a bit better because I used Fauna&Flora and had the trophies delivered to my door in Western PA. The quality of their work was excellent. Have a great hunt. John W

Jorge, Do you know who the shipper was from Jo burg to Atlanta? I had my animals mounted in SA in 02. It cost $1,850 to ship 9 shoulder mounted animals to Seattle WA. I'm hoping my shipement from Zim won't be more than that. I may try to contact the same SA shipper and get a shipping quote from them.

I had all my mounts done there from my 2002 trip. They did an excellent job. I think it took them 10-12 months to complete.
