[/ QUOTE ] yes and when the turkey is in full strut the beard never looks as liong as it really is. I think he did a very nice job on that mount looks like he used a freeze dried head and I think it turned out pretty decent ... just one thing though... how come you had such a small turkey mounted like that ... ROFL jk man looks great Oh and for the record nobdy up here in Iowa would touch a turkey mount luike that for under 700 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest okie Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Re: Here he is! I am about 95% satisfied! Looks good, I'm glad he used the freeze dried head.

VTbowman Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Re: Here he is! I am about 95% satisfied! 1st; wow, nice bird for sure. No wonder you went for the full body mount. I noticed the beard too but its not bad at all. I did notice a bit of red over spray on the beak from the snewd. But again not noticable unless your right up close and personal. Id say you got your moneys worth. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
