Well I got one of my tail mounts up tonight. I had the help of a cool shop teacher after work help me get it cut out and finished up. Now the question, beard or no beard. I will add the spurs to the string when they are finished.

Beard it is. I like the mount a lot and have 45 minutes of work and $0 into it. I also like the fact that I can add more beards/spurs in the future. I have always wanted to figure out a way to keep the beautiful back feathers on a mount and I think I did that.
Very cool! And yes, definitely include the beard.
I have seen a similar mount at a local bow shop, I think only difference was they had wings as well, I'll have to snap a pic next time I'm there, could be something you could add later!
It needs a woodburning/painting in that nicely framed area under the tail. You can still hang the beard there, maybe a strutting gobbler to one side and a gobbling gobbler to the other? Or a hen gobbler pair?
I like the wood burning idea but lack the skills. I would end up turning it into fire wood.
Beard it looks incomplete with out it.
just a suggestion, stick the beard in the shot shell, and mount it on it.
I like it with the beard
