turkey mounts / hunts / skins

Recommended Posts

its about that time again turkey season is about here. i'm leaving thursday morning to head to SC for a few days. then my boy has a youth tag, then a bunch of others.... ANYWAY if you are thinking of getting a turkey mount done several things you need to do to make the mount come out better. dont shoot it while it is strutting! the fan gets demolished.... keep blood off the feathers as best as you can, wrap the head in paper towel and tuck it under a wind to keep it from getting freezer burned ( if you arent taking it to a taxidermist right away. ) keep the feathers as best you can. rolling around in the back of your pickup isnt real good on it.... these are a few things to keep in mind... anyway once again offering 10% discount to CW members on turkey mounts.

i can do them in any pose, flying, struttting, gobbling etc.... if you any questions as to my mounts drop matthewp45 a line and see what he thinks, he has 4-5 of them i've done.....

 

also if you ARE NOT going to mount it i can always use the skins as replacement skins for those who do not follow the above suggestions :) :) and i do NOT need the beard..... so you can keep that.....

 

any questions feel free to give me a shout.

good luck to all

tommy

Do you do dead hanging mounts? I already have a strutter and a flying mount so wanting to do something different next time.

 

 

Like this, not a great picture though...
