Don has done three bird table mounts for me (pictured below) as well as a mount of my son's first-ever walleye (Lake Erie, May 2007).

I left the creative part up to Don and as you can see, he did his usual great job.  I highly recommend Don to anybody looking for a top-of-the-line mount.

If you're in the Kalamazoo area, pay a visit to Don's studio in Gobles, Michigan about 10 miles north of Exit 60 (Paw Paw) on I-94.   He has numerous examples of work he's done over the years.  Give him a call for specific directions.
