The story behind All Feathers Taxidermy
Owner & Lead Artist/Taxidermist
Heath Hoogerhyde
Michigan
Heath is an outdoorsman at heart and always has been, chasing turkeys and waterfowl! He has been blessed enough to travel the country chasing both turkeys and ducks! His family consists of 2 beautiful daughters (4 years old and 2 years old) and his wife Shelby who also loves the outdoors! Heath and Shelby have been married 8 years and she has been the biggest supporter of both his companies from day 1!
Heath also owns a business called Hoogs Customs which focuses on the protection and enhancement of high end cars in which he also works full time! He has worked very hard to turn two passions into full time businesses!
All Feathers Taxidermy was started on pure curiosity of seeing how well Heath could do feather art! After 10 turkeys completed he decided to offer his skills to clients and hasn't looked back continually increasing his quality! The goal with each piece is to make it as perfect as possible and he strives for that each time. From small original designs such as the Grand Slam Sets all the way to Turkey/Pheasant tables, Heath has allowed his creative side to take the lead on producing some of the best feather art out there!
