    That would make for a great mount.......I agree

    Adam $425 with a manufactured head and $525 using your head and sending it off to be freeze dried......he also will take the bird right now and cape it out,degrease it and hold it till you get the funds if needed.....he'll work with you....

    i think the gobbler walkin would def show off the beards and the hooks or a gobbline mount would show them off like on a limb we got a dead mount in the shop with double beards and you gotta look at the side to them

    Like I said brosuf....take him to t the fella I said and think about it......if in a few months you decide not to then you can always get him back........but if you start hackin him you will most likely regret it later on........

    WOW! You have had an outstanding season! Can I borrow your horse-shoe?
    If you were to mount him in a 3/4 strut, gobblin on limb it would make all those beards stand out nicely!

    Congrats - nice bird.

    I got one in half strut. Just took these with a cell phone. He's a little dusty right now also.
    Freeze dried head is a must.
