So I have kept every tail from every turkey I have ever killed, yup you can call me a Fan-Addict. But until some recent changes in our DNR we have never been able to sell these "parts" from a turkey. Now I have some very special birds I have the fans displayed and would never sell, (Same goes for Spurs & Beards I would never sell) but in general I have way too many around the house... Last year I sold several Fan & Wing Sets to those who are buying strutter decoys and don't have these, I have been selling them again this year and while at a few shows I was looking for a way to display them for show/sale. In doing so I came up with a very inexpensive way to do this and now I am using this at home for my own fans to display :)

Ended up picking up these 8-slot wire file holders and they worked out great and less than $10 at Wally World.

Yup every fan :) I have given away quite a few over the years but kept and dried each of them before I did, now that I can sell them I have paid for Tags & toys for the quad and some other turkey stuff :)

I keep all my beards and spurs. Some fans but not all.  I generally keep a few feathers off every one and stick them somewhere.  The inside of my truck looks like a turkey exploded in it.

I hate throwing away a fan because they are pretty but then I have no place to stash every single fan...yep you are a true fan addict, just add a stick and a GoPro holder and sell em for $100 each lol

Looks good, and nothing better than getting some monies to get new toys!!

I have every fan beard and spurs from all mine everyone is a little different but all to pretty to get rid of.The first 1/2 dozen look a little rough and then I learned how to do a better job with the fans.
If you make everything easy how do you know when your good at anything?

crazy how many people were walking around the convention with those turkey fan boxes sticking out of their bags. A plain old fan is easy enough to use, and is free, I don't get it. I guess the next thing they need to make is a pop up blind with a fan painted on it so you can walk around fields in your blind. Lol
