I'd like to hear some professional opinions on which is the best full-strut artificial turkey head available. The pre-painted Anthony Eddy, Tony Finazzo, and Kuenzel heads from Van Dyke's all look pretty good, but I don't have any first-hand experience with them. Are there any others that are better? Which of the Van Dyke's models is the best? Thanks

Personally don't like the artificial heads i always use the real head and have it freeze dried. I don't like to go through all the work to making a turkey look good and then put on a plastic head when the freeze dried head is the most realistic.

AE has the best looking fake head out there, IMO. Freeze dried are nice to but they cost a whole lot more and if not painted properly they still look bad.

Thanks, guys. Is the Van Dyke's Anthony Eddy the only one out there or are there different (better?) ones directly from Anthony Eddy?

Also - I'm not a taxidermist and I haven't gotten into even trying as a hobby yet. The reason I'm asking about fake heads is because I'm thinking I may need to go that route toreplace a poorly done freeze-dried one.

IMO Cary Cochran puts out the absolute best artificial head on the market. You can get them pre-painted or unfinished and paint them yourself.
If you go with a freeze dried head, go with Cally Morris.
