I just want to say Congratulations to Shannon Callahan of Horse Cave, Kentucky for completing my whitetail mounting course and to give him his Certificate.  Great Job Shannon.  Shannon is already an Excellent Taxidermist and it really showed in his ability to learn quickly and also the quality he put into his mounts.  It was indeed an pleasure working with you Shannon.

If there is anyone else out there that is considering Big Game Head mounting instructions just look at this thread and make up your own mind whether you like our work of not.  The proof is in the Postings......

Sorry it has taken some time to reply back to your comments on my taxidermy work but I've been a little busy mounting with my new method of training only due to your teaching skills in which was outstanding. I have been practicing taxidermy work for 14 years and I have learned more in your course than I have in 14 years of working the art. Thank you so much for a dream completed in my life in which you helped me in becoming the best that I could ever be in the passing of the true art of taxidermy. If anyone has any desire to be tought this true art with one on one teaching, John Griffith is the most gifted teacher that anyone could ever ask for. John, you will be seeing me again and thank you again for helping me reach my dream.

WOW, what an exciting past two days here at Griffith's Big Game Head Mounting School.  Kurt Hergenrother from Pleasant Plains, Illinois who has been here a couple of times came back for some real Big Game Head Mounting.  We mounted the Elk and Antelope in two days.  Kurt's goal in taxidermy is to be one of the BEST Big Game Head Taxidermist in the country.  Sure looks like he is on his way.  Thanks Kurt for your business and I really enjoyed working with you during the past couple of days.


If anyone else out there is interested in sharpening their skills or want to advance there learning in Big Game Head Mounting then give John Griffith a call or visit us at :www.griffithtaxidermy.com

I would like to express my sincere Thanks to Traven Rowe from Savannah, Ohio for coming down for two days and mounting a couple open mouth deer heads.  Traven is an Outstanding taxidermist in Ohio and totally concentrates on Whitetails.  It certainly does show that he intends to be one on the Best.  Thanks again Traven for Selecting Griffith's Big Game Head School for your Taxidermy Training needs.  We appreciate your business.

Traven, your mounts look great, I'm also from Ohio and I know how big the deer can get up there. I relocated here in Kentucky about 4 years ago and I also attended Johns mounting course. Im on your same page with pictures. John really brings out the best in us with his one on one training. Keep up the good work and If I know John the way you do he is honored to see the results of your outstanding work. If anyone out there is just waiting and wanting big game mounting training, why in the world would they wait and let time pass with knowing that John Griffith is willing and waiting to pass on the true are of taxidermy. Best of luck.   Shannon Callahan

I just wanted to Congratulate Ronnie Yates of Beechmont, Ky for completing my Whitetail finishing class and receiving his Certificate of completion.  Ronnie and I had a Great time together and you can see he is very serious about his work.  Thanks for your business Ronnie. 

If anyone out there is thinking about improving his skills or just wants to learn how to mount Big Game Animals give us a call or check us out on this thread.  Remember Hunting season in some places is just a couple weeks from now.  Thanks
