Default Van Dyke's Lifelike Turkey Tail

How is this mount as far as quality? I wanna spruce up my first gobbler, and rather than doing a traditional Fan Mount, I would like to opt for this...Any Comments? Thanks.

Default RE: Van Dyke's Lifelike Turkey Tail

I actually bought one, thinking I'd use it for the 2nd bird I got this year, but I ended up taking it to a taxidermist to get a 1/2 mount done. I was impressed by the head - pleasantly sruprised to say the least. The picture in the online catalog didn't do it much justice, IMO. Good coloring and detail, especially for the price. The chest wasn't as good, of course, but I didn't expect to be.

My third bird ended up being a hen, so I guess I'll have to wait awhile to put it to use!
