My NM Turkey mount

Recommended Posts

Here is the turkey I got last spring in NM. He is a little beat up from flopping around on the ground after being shot. Unfortunately, I let the wings dry with too much curve to them so it won't sit flush against the wall. Not sure if I can fix that or not. Might just take the wings off and use them in wildlife education presentations I do.

 

 

If you missed my hunt story, you might enjoy it:

You could mount it on a pedestal, instead of a wall?

 

 

Thanks for the suggestion!! That might work. Although I would worry about my dog Julie grabbing it or knocking the pedestal down.

It looks nice. Could you use a spacer block behind the plaque?

 

 

At first that is what I thought, but it would have to like a foot long spacer. And then it just takes over the part of the room where it is. My husband thought maybe we could hang it over our bed, but in trying that it just looks odd unless you are looking up at it.

 

Keep the ideas coming.
