Arizona Wings Taxidermy

Grady and Nancy Smith

Grady is a well known big game taxidermist in Arizona. He has been hunting and fishing since he was a young boy. As a youth he helped his Dad, Don Smith who worked with the Arizona Game and Fish, manage wildlife. His training to date includes 1 year of taxidermy school and 6 months of advance training. Grady has changed his focus from mammals to just birds. For this he took training by Rodger Gidney of Cedar Glen Wholesale Bird Taxidermy. He is getting on going training and help from our good friends Bob and June Hancock, one of Arizona's best bird taxidermists.

Nancy became Grady's wife in February of 2008. She shared Grady's love for the outdoors, is an avid fisherman, and can shoot a gun too. This past elk season she got her cow all on her own.

Together, we are quite a team. We look forward to serving you, our customer with the best mounts and best service possible.
