Page 4 of 20 And let s Not forgot what our President Steve Tugwell said not long ago..we are going to hold him to his words!! So get to work mounting those competition pieces!! Well this is my last year as President of the NCTA and I would like to have the biggest show we have ever had this year. After some twisting of my arm by a couple of good friends I am going to make a proposal to everyone. If we get 200 or more mounts at the show I will wear a dress at the banquet and pass out awards and get my Masters Plaque in a dress. Now the rules are actual mounts. Habitat will not count toward this. I know we can do this but I am sure hoping you all don't. LOL. So get to working on those mounts and let's see if y all can get a good laugh on me this year at our banquet. A HUGE Congratulations to these NCTA current and previous members for their wins at THE WORLD SHOW!!! Eric Perry- 1 st in the World: Waterfowl Mark Benfield- 3 rd in the World: Waterfowl Justin Hinson- 3 rd in the World: Gameheads Gene Smith- 1 st in the World: Whitetail Deer
Page 5 of 20 Competition Divisions Competition Entry Fee: $25 per entry Collective Artist Division: $50 per entry Commercial Division The mounts will be judged from a distance and the judge will be looking for a good, sound commercial work. There will be multiple first, second, and third place ribbons. Entry fee is the same as the other divisions. You may enter a mount in any category but after you receive two 1 st place ribbons in an individual category you have to more on to the Professional Division. You will NOT receive a score sheet. Youth Division No entry fee with registered adult. This includes any youth 12 years old or younger. Amateur Division This division is for someone just starting to compete. You are competing against a score sheet, not against other competitors. 90-100= 1 st Place 80-89= 2 nd Place 70-79= 3 rd Place Professional Division This division is for someone who has experience but still wants to learn. You are competing against a score sheet, not against other competitors. 90-100= 1 st Place 80-89= 2 nd Place 70-79= 3 rd Place Masters Division You can enter the Masters Division of your own choosing, but if you have an Award of Excellence in any category or have taken a mount to a higher competition (NTA or World) and have won 1 st Place, you have to enter Masters Division. If you have two mounts in the same category you must enter them into the same division (for example: two shoulder mount whitetail deer you cannot enter one into Professional and one into Masters, you have to enter both into one or the other). State Champions will come from this division in each category if there is a mount score 90 or above. Masters division will be divided into all categories same as Professional and Amateur. 90-100= 1 st Place 80-89= 2 nd Place 70-79= 3 rd Place Collective Artist Division This division has been setup for those taxidermists who want to combine their skills on a certain mount. All taxidermists, Amateur through Masters may compete on a certain piece or pieces. Pieces will be judged for artistic composition by the judges. Scores will be combined by the number of animals and then divided by that number to determine final score. Three ribbon elimination, no multiple ribbons. Scores do not count for points toward your Award of Excellence.

Page 7 of 20 Honored Guests: Bird Judge- Tim Jordan Tim Jordan is one of the premier Bird taxidermist in the world. He has released DVD's on mounting strutting turkeys and also judged numerous shows across the Country. Tim will be sharing his experience and knowledge and we look forward to having him judge our show this year. Fish and Reptiles Judge- Terry Weick I have been involved in Taxidermy since the early age of 11. At that time, learning was from trial and error and the Northwest School of Taxidermy correspondence course. Today we are fortunate to have great associations and mentors willing to share the latest techniques. At a young age, I took summer art classes and learnt design and balance. Although I didn t realize till later years, this helped me to pay attention to the detail. During my struggles with Taxidermy I never gave up and always was looking for a solution to my disastrous attempts. In 1990 I joined the Michigan Taxidermist Association and have been a member since. Meeting some very talented people that were will to share, and attending seminars along with competing helped shaped my success. I have run a fulltime studio since 1992 doing all phases of Taxidermy. For the last 10 years I have been fortunate to be a Judge /instructor for many State shows as well as Ontario, Quebec,and in the fall of 2017,New Zeeland and Australia. Competing is something I still enjoy, because it pushes my focus to do the very best that I m capable of. Twenty plus years of attending Taxidermy conventions I have won many awards. But the Best awards are the friendships and connections I have made. I am truly honored to be your judge and instructor for the second time, thank you. Lifesize and Gamehead Judge- Billy Robertson Billy Robertson is definitely no stranger to the world of taxidermy! He has been involved in many aspects of taxidermy over the past 42 years as a taxidermist, instructor, consultant, organizer and judge.
Page 8 of 20 Whitetail Judge- Dean Ursitti At an early age, Dean became fascinated with the outdoors, wildlife and the art of taxidermy. Growing up in Southern Maryland he started hunting small game on the farms around his house. He started bow-hunting in his early teens and quickly realized that bow-hunting whitetail deer was his passion. In 1988, he began tinkering with taxidermy, mounting his first deer head. For years, he struggled to get "the look" he so desired in his mounts. He decided to get instruction from World Champion Joe Meder, and take his taxidermy to the next level. After completing the courses with Joe, and competing at various state and Regional Competitions, Deans work improved dramatically. In 1992, he competed at the World Taxidermy Championships where he took Best in World Amateur with his whitetail mount. After years of studying deer and running his taxidermy studio, Dean competed at the 2001 NTA convention where he won the title of National Champion also capturing the coveted Award of Excellence at the same time. In 2003, at the World Taxidermy Championships he took 3rd in the World with his entry. Dean continues to strive for perfection in his Whitetail mounts as he continues to try new methods and pioneer improved results with each mount he produces. With the knowledge of whitetails Dean has accumulated in his 29 years of experience, he has been asked to judge at competitions around the United States. He lives in LaPlata, MD where he owns and operates Creative Whitetails Taxidermy. He mounts all species of animals, but specializes in Whitetail Deer. Original Art Judge- Sara Miles Local North Carolina artist, Sarah Ellen Miles, graduated from Purdue University in 1974 with a degree in Consumer Science. She then pursued her strong interest in various forms of art by attending Virginia Wesleyan College where she studied with a number of outstanding professor, including the well-known Virginia artist Barclay Sheaks. After receiving her degree in art, she continued to study painting with her mentor Mr. Sheaks for over twenty years. She enjoys painting with both acrylics and watercolor pencil. Sarah has had several one-person shows and is honored to have received the top award in the Dare County Arts Council Molly Fearing Show. Sarah is married to the award-winning taxidermist Terry Miles and together they built and until recently, operated the Midway Marina/Motel and Crabbie s Restaurant in Coinjock, North Carolina. Brian Piro Commercial, Amateur & Youth Division: Fish and Reptiles Judge Brian has been a member of the NCTA for over five years. He has earned the award of excellence in the fish category.
