Default saving a turkey fan

a few weeks ago i shot my first bird which was a respectable jake with a 5 1/2" beard. my buddy who was a big turkey hunter just cut the tails real close, he was able to cut it without leaving meat. i then spread it out and covered it in borax. today i went out in the garage where it was the take care of it and now it smells pretty bad. is there any way to save it? the beard and spurs dont smell at all. i would really like to save it if possible?
