Our Story


Scovel Taxidermy, located in Indianola, IA, south of Des Moines in central Iowa, was a dream that became a reality in 2001. Rocky Scovel, an avid deer hunter, began by doing deer shoulder mounts. We have added fish and all types of game heads to our taxidermy services over the years, and we introduced European skull mounts, utilizing Dermestid Beetles, in 2007.

Starting in 2019 we now have a second pick up and drop off location! In addition to Indianola, Iowa, you can now drop off and pick up in Unionville, Missouri. By appointment only we can help bridge the gap for our southern Iowa hunters and offer a new service for Northern Missouri hunters.  

We take great pride in our customer relationships. We strive to become more than just your taxidermists. Many of our clients have become friends as we earn the honor to preserve your treasured trophies. We have earned the privilege of being the taxidermist many hunting outfitters send their valuable clients to.

Many of our avid deer hunters use the Milo Locker HUSH Program and use our FREE pick up service form the locker. We know your time is valuable, by offering this service we save you time and the extra trip.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Has done 2 mounts for me, one for my daughter and one for me. Will go with no one else!!! Thanks for the doe mount! Looks great even though I doubted it!"
​"
Scovel did a super nice job on my Heavy Ten skull mount with a woodgrain dip, exactly what I wanted and better than I expected. Reasonable pricing and easy to work with."
"
They did a great job on my white tail mount. It looks just like the deer that I shot. Their prices were very reasonable and they were very accommodating with the timeframe that I needed to have it back due to moving out of state. I would absolutely go back for future taxidermy work."
