I have some mounts. I started back in the mid to late 80's and the woodduck was the last bird I had a taxidermist do a couple of years ago. I still enjoy them all. I didn't mount the birds on the wall (I did make the wood plaques they are on), the turkey cape, or the big game heads, but I did all the other stuff myself.

My room downstairs.















Bighorn Sheep skulls.



I smile almost every time I walk by my banded turkey mounts.



Some tails in the family room.



I really like the way these look in my cabin.


Very impressive, man.  Where did you kill your banded longbeard(s)?

Wow!  Starting to regret starting this thread. I'm getting insanely jealous!!  Lol!  Some really great mounts. Wish I had the money or the time to hunt half that!

I have several deer one bull elk and a bear mounted. never mounted a turkey for no specific reason.

There is a small barn behind my house and a basement under me full of skulls claws beards and spurs.

I made the decision 15 years ago to save my taxidermist money and spend it on ammunition arrows and gas for my truck. Never looked back.

i love looking at everyones mounts and loved all you guys rooms,i love big spurs and that last bird featheredhat showed was amazing,loved to have got that one,i only have one gobbler mounted,the first one i ever got but it was a pretty good one,24 pounds,10.5 inch beard and 1 3/8 inch spurs.i will say this though while some people put signs and liscense plates on their garage walls i have mine about completly feathered with tail fans and capes.i did kill a bearded hen a few years ago that i wish i had got mounted,i know some are against shooting them,but where i live they are kinda rare and this one was special,it had a 9 inch beard,which after doing a little researching i have found out that is a super beard for a hen.i got it in the fall with a crossbow, i did make a cape out of it that turned out awesome,and i keep all my beards hanging up and the spurs on a big leather string.thanks for sharing all the pics fellers i hope one day i will become savy enough to be able to post a few.

Awesome mounts guys!!! Thanks for sharing!! :icon_thumright:
Treerooster, I love the way you have the subspecies separated like that. Nice idea! :icon_thumright:
GaSlam95, great collection, I really like it!! :icon_thumright:

Here's what I've got so far. After I retire next spring, I plan on seriously adding to my collection.  :fud:
At home I have 4 shoulder mounts of bucks, 2 full body mount gobblers, 5 ducks, a fox squirrel, several antlers, a European deer mount, a cow skull I found and had decorated Indian style, a deer skull found in the woods and a gator head. Along with old duck decoys, calls and other assorted memoirs.







My stud Ohio 16 point buck.




Painted turkey feather with a pic of my 16 point buck, and an old fox squirrel my Dad had mounted before I was born.

Decorated cow skull and jaw.
