Looks good to me. I just ordererd a full-body mount on the turkey I got a couple weeks ago & I don't know where I will put it when it is done. That one looks nice & can be hung up on the wall.

I'm not crazy about them feet on it. The guy that's teaching me to mount them is charging 425 for a full strut.

I like it, I think the feet are a big part of the turkey and should be included in the mount somehow.. That is one of the first things you look at after taking a turkey, the beard then the spurs... THat is a neat idea, and for what my taxidermist charges for the full strut, I may be looking into somethign like this is the future. But once again my main goal is to get my wife out of MY basement, so the bigger the mounts, the less room she has to put her GIRLIE crap down there. I guess I need to start hunting more and get more deer heads (Whitetail and hopefully a SIKA) on the wall to go with some of the turkeys I plan on killing in the future... Got my fan all done with the beard from my second turkey. Bought the lil kit from the sporting store in the mall, Not real crazy about the mount but after some fine tuning it turned out pretty good. I should probably work on a Bear, Moose, and Elk hunt to really minimize her room down there...

well this is my first turkey mount so i am excited either way now she did tell me she could do it with or with out the feet but that would be like mounting a deer with one horn in my opinion

I like the mount. I saw one like it at a taxidermists I know. Sure does save on space and $$$.
