Well I finally drew a tag and killed a bear in Utah this year. I've called a few taxidermist to have them rug the bear but none of them do rugs, just full body mounts!

Do any of you know a taxidermist that does good rugs? Preferably in Utah.

Also if you have some pics of your bear rug post them on here, then I can get ideas on felt colors,open or close mouth,etc.

D-Extreme in Riverton did an awesome rug for me several years back. I had it done open mouth. Darren is his name and his phone number is 801-915-4442. He has fleshed, prepared and tanned several of our bear hides since (Just tanned to hang on peg or as a throw rug decor), in fact he has my boys from this May right now. He also just completed my wife's euro head. Took him a day and I had it back.

Jay Ogden of Ogden Taxidermy.
The stuff you see in his shop is amazing. Hell of a guy too.
Drive about 8 hours to drop off and pick stuff up. I've known him 15 years.
