Quote from: JeffC on April 10, 2021, 06:41:18 PMI second this idea. You'd really be able to see the back and wings, and get a lot of enjoyment out of the color phase.

Could go with a hanging dead mount, then next week if you wanted a flying mount just take him off the post and turn him 90 degrees and hang him on the wall. ;D

the hanging mount would show off wings and fan better, if showing spurs i would pick another mount..

Gorgeous gobbler. I'd go with a hanging dead on old fence post. My Dad has a mount like this. Its eye level so you can really see every feather up close and detailed. Congratulations

Congrats on a fine bird! That's very cool looking.
The pic JeffC posted would really show off his back and wings. Have fun choosing!

Congrats on a beauty. I'll go against popular opinion and go with the flying mount like the one pictured. It shows off all colors very well and just looks better to me.
