My brother and I succeeded on the second day of youth season and he bagged his first turkey. It was a jake but had 5 separate beards. He really wants a display with the fan, wings, beards and feet in it. The main beard is about 6 inches and the others are an inch. Any ideas or tips would be appreciated. Or any displays that he might like let's see Em! If any one knows of kits made for wing and fan mounts id appreciate any tips. Thanks!

This is my son's first turkey from last year.  It's not quite finished yet.  I had his turkey skull cleaned, whitened and then pewtered.  That should be done this coming week.  I have a small wood pedestal that will mount on the board covering the fan.  His skull will be on that pedestal.  I also have a small plaque being made with his name, date and measurements that should be done next week as well.  The plaque will be put on the board below the beard.  I like what I have so far and cannot wait to see the whole thing put together an on the wall.  I will post some pics of the finished mount as soon as it is put together.
