Where to get a Black Bear rugged out??

[JoelF]

Heading up to the Clinton area this weekend and may possibly take a blackie if its the right one. Who do you experts recommend taking the bear to to get rugged? Head done as well. And what should it cost?
thanks

(Ray) Mainlandhunter formerly heads above the rest did a great job with my bear rug and charged very reasonably, I hope to have another one in his hands before winter. His # is: 778.241.0208

What about price? Is there a big difference b/t leaving the head on or not?

Try Dawn til dusk taxidermy. they are located in Sorrento B.C. Her name is Diane and she does great work. Ph# 1-250-835-8234. If you don't know where that is its east of Kamloops. The price is usually around 100.00 per ft.

Dale Stalzer in Kamloops, he did mine and it is great!!! About $120ish a foot, but I think prices may be up now.

my dad shot a 6'5 blacky about 5 years ago now and the price was around $800.00 total 120.00 a foot sounds about right
