Do you know anyone that does Bison Euro [clean and whiten skull]? Drew a tag for Bison hunt in Dec.. Local taxidermist either don't do euros at all or don't want to do bison skull.

I am in Wi . Looked into doing it myself. Decided not take that route. Contacted a few taxidermist from goggle search they dont do bison euros. One guy did but not liking the $850 price tag.

Drew one of six resident / non-resident Bull only bison tags for Custer unit in south Dakota. Located south of Mount Rushmore. Started putting in the first year they started the draw system ten years ago. I am located in Oshkosh / Fdl area. The Euro guy located between on 45 doesn't want do a bison skull for various reasons besides getting hand surgury. He has done boar, elk, antelope, bobcat, woodchuck and bear for me in the past.

These guys did a White tail for me years ago. (Montana Skull Works). very happy with their work. Also I don't feel $850.00 is out of line for a skull that large. I think most Taxi's charge $150.00-$200.00 for a white tail skull and a Bison is huge compared to those.

Try Todd Besaw in Scandinavia. I know he’s done big heads with his beetles in the past and he has always been very reasonable with deer.

Huntcell, I`ve ben putting in also since they started in Custer Park. Could you give me a little insight on how your experience was with the hunt and park/ranger, handling on your bison. You can private message me if you`d like. Thank You

The skull guy on fb. I work with the owner. He uses Beatles and does euro mounts for nearly 1/7 of the taxidermist in WI. A deer euro is $80.

I had about 10 quotes for euro.

Range from 225-850. $850 was an outlier, Most were $225-$250 .

Few from Rapid City SD near hunt area, one from Michigan where I am getting the head mount done, others from Wi.

Photo is representative of what the head mount should look like.
