I had the opportunity to spend some time with Jerry at his studio.  His attention to detail and the quality of work that he does is unsuprassed.  My birdwork has drastically imporved due to the one on one time I spent learning from Jerry.  I would stronly recomend him to anyone considering learning bird taxidermy.

With approximately twenty years experience in taxidermy, I have had the great opportunity to be able to study and take classes from some of the nation's best avian taxidermists, and I must say that the recent week long class with Jerry was by far the most exciting and informative instruction I have experienced. Jerry's attention to fine detail along with the ability to teach the finer points of anatomy will propel my work to the level I have been working toward. Add to that, the amazing instruction provided on casting, habitat construction, and composition will undoubtedly add to the realism of my final product. If anyone has ever considered training to improve their skill level, I would highly recommend Jerry and FlywayTaxidermy...from the moment you set foot into the showroom and then enter the studio, you will soon realize that you have come to the right place.

Attending Instructional Courses with Jerry at Flyway Taxidermy was a phenominal experience, and a sound investment in furthering my taxidermy career.  Jerry's attention to detail is second to none and his knowledge of taxidermy is encyclopedic.

Thank you for a great learning experince,

I am writing to personally describe my recent training experience at Flyway Taxidermy.  I spent 5 days with Jerry. The hospitality provided by Jerry was world class. Transportation to and from the airport and the hotel to the shop was provided each day.   Jerry tailored the course to my individual needs and paced his instruction according to my progress.  Jerry was an open book to all of his techniques which has helped him achieve great success in competitive waterfowl taxidermy.   Jerry is a fantastic instructor who is open for criticism to improve his program for future students.  The training environment was absolutely immaculate and very well set up. I recommend anyone interested in waterfowl taxidermy seriously consider training with Jerry, regardless of the cost.   The environment was friendly, relaxed and I had a great time! I'll be back for sure.

I worked with Jerry for three days in the study of advanced habitat construction.  We covered a lot of material in a three day period.  I found his instuction to be very informative.  I also learned some new ways to cut cost and time while producing a quality habitat scene to compliment any mounted waterfowl species.  The information Jerry provided was complete.  He gave me information on which product to use for what and where to order it from.  The most important instucton of all was what I learned not to do!   The instruction is woth the money if you have a desire and willingness to take the time to learn.
