A Legacy of Excellence in Taxidermy

Blaze Taxidermy has earned its reputation for quality work, building on the foundation set by its founder, Master Taxidermist Steve Jones of Miami Valley Taxidermy. Today, under the ownership of Brian Burns, the studio remains a go-to destination for hunters seeking expert taxidermy services. Burns, a lifelong outdoorsman and board member of the Ohio Taxidermists Association, reflects on his passion, sharing, “I have been an avid outdoorsman and hunter since the age of 9." 

Burns keeps Blaze Taxidermy at the forefront of the industry by competing annually in the Ohio Taxidermy Championships, where he hones his skills and learns the latest techniques to deliver the highest-quality mounts. "Preserving the beauty of these animals through taxidermy has always been my goal,” states Burns.

Why Hunters Choose Blaze Taxidermy

Blaze Taxidermy specializes in deer shoulder mounts, upland birds, and ducks, ensuring that every piece is a true work of art. Burns explains his process: “Every piece I create is crafted with precision and care. I pay close attention to anatomy and details to ensure each mount looks as lifelike as possible.”

Satisfied customers echo this dedication to excellence. Hunter Matt Steinbrugge shares, “Had a deer mounted by Brian and it turned out absolutely amazing. I highly recommend Blaze Taxidermy.” It’s this commitment to quality and customer satisfaction that makes Blaze Taxidermy a standout in the hunting community.
