WEBSITE IS BACK!!
Hey ya’ll, our new website is live. After several years of a somewhat legal battle over our domain name which we previously had owned for years, we finally were able to re-acquire, keeping our original www address the same. HUGE shoutout to my brother in-law for creation of the new site.

We are still working on the Gallery, adding/removal of some photos. We will also be adding ‘Sponsors/Partners’ area as well in promotion of gear, knives, taxidermy and field related products.
An ‘About’ tab will also be added later talking about the shop and our history.

Main page, contact/inquiry info and the 2026 price list are all UTD.
Go take a look and please share

Everyone gets to meet Tucker, my black lab shop/shed hunting dog when they come to BRT. The last few days he has been entertaining ‘Jake’, our employee Trents new pup. Good looking pup and future waterfowler. He gives us some laughs in the shop for sure when he’s not trying to convince Tucker to play with him.

Packboard cougar. We do a LOT of Packboard (PB) mounts here at BRT, but this honestly the first PB cougar I’ve done. Not a large cat but still a killer of fawns and calves so it’s a good one! Congrats and thank you to the owner!
Thank you to Comstock & Co as well for these great replica Trapper Nelson packs we put a large majority of our PB mounts on!

Not the greatest of photos but this bull was so big I really didn’t want to haul him too much further from the mounting stand prior to the client coming to pick him up. By big I mean just his sheer body/head mass! This bull is from special permit area in western Washington that is NOTORIOUS for big bodied bulls…and this guy didn’t disappoint. Take a look at pic 2 and his head size! Some serious mods were needed to make the form fit the hide.
Thank you to this returning client for the work!
