had to cut the beard and the spurs off!
 
i just thought i would share with you. i had a tom in the freezer for the past 2 years killed in spring of 99. well i've been looking for a resonable taxadermist since then. but the lowest price i could find was $500. i just could'nt pay that kind of price. what about your experiences? oh yeah! he had 1 inch spurs and a 10 1/2 beard and weighed 23#'s.

I had 3 done last year for 400 a piece. Also did some neat tail feather mounts with the beard and spurs. If I get a few more nice ones this year you bet I will also mount them.

B390 there is an alturnitive to a full mt.it cost a little less and doesn't take up as muck space.
it is called a shoulder mt;sorta like a deer shoulder mt.
it is the head,breast,with the tail and wings spread.I have some pics. if someone could post them,e-mail me and I will send them to be posted.

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.
