Welcome to the Lyons & O'Haver Game department!
The creation of an outstanding big game trophy requires careful handling from the beginning.
Your freshly killed trophy should be kept out of the sun and it should be
skinned immediately. The skin should then be frozen or salt dried. Let us know if you need instructions on how to skin an animal, especially if you need help with the more
detailed areas such as the ears, nose, lips and eyes.
After the skin is dried, it is professionally tanned to a high quality soft leather. We relax the skin, stretch it and then measure it to determine how big to make the
mannekin. The mannekins or forms are made from high density polyurethane foam and are indvidually sculpted to fit the skin. We also alter the mannekin to create the pose
that you request.
