Merriam for the memories...
« on: July 23, 2013, 08:01:29 AM »
Took this mature gobbler in a snow storm hunting Nebraska this year.  The taxidermist did a really nice job adding some pine cones I had picked off the ground while on the Pineridge.  The buffalo skull, also from the same area, I got from a rancher to add to my trophy room.

Nice bird!!  Looks like you were hunting in the cross over area of Nebraska where the Hybreds are by the color of the tips of the tail fan.

Thanks for the kind replies.
Mount was done by a local taxidermist here in Ontario Canada.
