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.
Thanks for looking.

Beard
I love golf. It keeps a lot of people out of the turkey woods.

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.

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.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons. However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.
