Default Turkey Mount

Thought I'd share this one with you. I had a taxidermist over in Wisconsin do this mount for me and it turned out pretty good. It has a board frame behind and and hangs on the wall off of that. Something different...

At the time, it was $150 I believe. He sent the head down to Missouri to have it done there and it looks very good.

Here one of my Favorite mounts. I killed this one last year, doublekill opening day, me and my buddy. 11inch beard, 24 pounds, 24 mm. spurs. He was the lead bird in a group of 3.

That is a cool mount Ridgeruner!! I'm thinking about getting another mount and that definitely gives me an idea. I've been thinking about a flying mount too and that one you have is pretty cool. I've got a picture of one on a limb gobbling that I may try to pattern a mount after and that one is similiar to the pic. Thanx for sharing...

Hey Ridgerunner it looks like you are a pretty big hunter and you have lots of trophies, What else do you have mounted.

Buckmastr,
I have 5 whitetail deer, 4 turkey, 2 bass and 1 grey fox being done currently, I caught the grey trapping this year, really nice one. I want to add an elk, black bear, moose, maybe a pronghorn. I gotta get my kids raised so I can afford it though..lol Thanks, Ridge. The pictures really don't do the mounts any justice. They look awesome, my taxidermist is the best in the country for turkey, I'd almost lay money on it. I've seen award winning mounts for turkey, his are better... Smeltz Taxidermy.. He is the best..

I'm not just being biased either, I'm very critical of my mounts,. I have two deer that are a mess done by Earl Wilson, in Morton, Indiana. Worst job I've ever seen on deer. I'll post them later, they 're terrible.

I have more turkey mounts I'll posts later. Ridgeruner
