Title: Gobbler mount (Updated)
Post by: TRKYHTR on July 29, 2012, 02:06:56 AM
Spent the day mounting my big gobbler from MO I killed this spring. I am just going to show pics so it is pic heavy. I still have some work to do. I have to do the tail but it wont take long. Lots of grooming. Hope you like it.

Here is the finished product. I'll do a little grooming but it is done for now.

That looks really nice, sending this on to my son-in-law who's a taxidermist as well!

Looking Good Joe!  ...Should end up looking fantastic after your final feather placement and grooming.  Great mount on a hoss of a gobbler.
