About Us

Hello my name is Pat Mehlhop, owner and operator of Mehlhop’s Four Seasons Taxidermy in Courtland Minnesota, I established my taxidermy business in 1989 along with my wife Tara. We have three children who also and enjoy spending time with me on a variety of different hunts. My wife Tara and I have lived in Anchorage Alaska, Rapid City South Dakota and we have been back and the New Ulm area since 2001. I built my new shop on highway 14 in Courtland in August 2016.

I am a very avid hunter, I was first introduced  to duck hunting by my dad at age 3. I have loved it ever since. I enjoy traveling to different areas of the country in search of specific waterfall species to complete my North American waterfowl collection. I am also pursuing my world turkey slam.

I specialize in all waterfowl taxidermy, turkey taxidermy, and North American big game.

I invite you to stop by my studio anytime to view my North American waterfall collection and also a variety of waterfall turkeys and upland birds along with multiple big game and African displays.
