Hunting Mecca of South Africa

Being inspired by the greatness of African wildlife Nylstroom Taxidermy was found in 1994. It all started in a small single room studio to more than 2000m² working area today, everyone at Nylstroom Taxidermy is proud to offer a reputable service and taxidermy craftsmanship of the highest level to all our customers all over the world.

We are situated in the Limpopo Province of South Africa about two hours north of Johannesburg in the town called Modimolle (new name for Nylstroom). Nevertheless we receive hunting trophies from all parts of South Africa.Our staff are well qualified and artists in their own right, from the skinning of trophies, fleshing, mould making to the final finishing touches all are devoted to give their best to satisfy the client.

At Nylstroom Taxidermy we strive to be updated with the latest and best-approved techniques in the industry, we are a member of the Taxidermy Association of Southern Africa and compete in their annual trophy competitions as well as attending their convention where professionals in the industry like suppliers and international taxidermists and judges hold seminars. We are appointed as a senior judge of TASA since 2003 after successfully passed our junior judge trail of three years.

We achieved many first, second and third ribbons over the past years and were grateful to go with three other senior judges to Namibia to judge hunting trophies internationally. We did serve on the executive committee of TASA and are always updated with new matters in the industry.

I got my trophies up in place this weekend. They are superb

I am extremely pleased with what you and your team have achieved and they will be a lifelong reminder of a great time spent hunting in South Africa. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending your services to any hunter looking for taxidermy services. The entire process from delivery to you, through taxidermy and shipment to me went very well , my thanks to all concerned. Until the next time! With kind regards, David

They are perfect!

I finished unpacking and hanging then Saturday. When we bought this house about ten years ago, I pictured this room as a trophy room, but my wife insisted my deer mounts go in another room. There was no way these could go there and she had a year to get used to the idea…sort of, anyway. She’s over it now and I even have room for my next batch! Thank you so much for the excellent work. See you next time! Paul

Everything is in perfect shape

I am happy to tell you that I have picked up my crate and everything is in perfect shape.
Thank you for your diligence and hard work. You are the best in the business and I will always recommend your services. You have been extremely helpful with good information and contacts.
I would like to add that the taxidermy work and crating of the mounts were excellent, thank you.

If anyone needs to be convinced to use your service

Thank you so much for our mounts and skins. When we opened the crate we were as excited as the days of our safari and the animals are as gorgeous now as then. We have placed them in our house and although it may be a bit crowded, we feel as if we are living in an African plains museum. If anyone needs to be convinced to use your service, please have them contact us. Thank you again. Steve
