Good looking bird. Nice base also. It's nice to get them done and outta the freezer. Good luck with the taxidermy.

Great job, that mount look awesome! my question is, why would someone want to mount a turkey? they are ugly buggers!

May I suggest freeze drying the natural heads. Nice looking mount.

I have heard that a freeze dried head on a turkey or even just a bird mount is the worst mount you can have in your collection. They get moths or some kind of larva that eat the mounts and then they spread to your big game heads. In only a matter of time the larva makes the hair fall out of your prize deer or elk head. It is expensive to get rid of the bugs.

They look good but is it worth all the hassle?

Archery is a year round commitment!!

the head on this turkey is freeze dried and if its done by somebody who is good at it they are in my opinion the best way to go but Anthony Eddy make a great artificial head as well.In my opinion never get a head skin mount make sure it is either a artificial or freeze dried head.Calley Morris does great freeze dried heads.
