What is your non-traditional mount?

What is some of your unique mounts or ideas? Besides the standard full strut / full body flying mounts. I am looking for something with a little smaller profile. I like some of the pictures I have seen with the wings and fan flared out with the beard on a plaque. I was also thinking of doing like a "shoulder" mount from the wing socket forward.

The 2 I hav are standard - full strut on limb and one standing normal

I hav seen some hanging - my buddy had one hanging on a fence post w barb wire wrapped around legs - was a neat mount - I want to do a hanging mount similar like it is naturally hanging after a kill

Cheaper budget I hav fanned out the fan and cured it then I take the legs and try to hav them stand up straight against a wall and put something heavy on them - they will firm up over time and what I am trying to do is get them to stand Up on there own. I hav ordered peace’s of wood I can put on wall - set feet in front of the fan and hang shell w beard down thru a shell - hav it on a wall on that board/wood - looks decent

I have a hanging dead mount that looks good.
Someone would have to post it.

Would b awesome to see

I post pic illiterate

I have a hanging-dead mount that I really like. I got that one mounted because he was banded. I doubt I will ever kill another banded gobbler. I don't like full strut mounts, but I did have one mounted that was half strutting on a limb and gobbling that was well done. Unfortunately, it fell and broke when we moved. Another mount that I like that isn't really a traditional one is where the gobbler is standing, one foot forward, and looking with his head up.

One of mine is kind of like the last one u described - I also think I would like the half strut gobble on a limb and started to do that but opted for strutter on limb and I like that one - mine luckily hav survived sev moves

W the spots I got - one bird killed a year would b good for me - if I get another stud - think I gone do the hangin mount

I have one flying and one gobbling on a limb

No my bird but I threw together the plaques

Took my slow butt a while to get it - that’s halarious

I’ve threatened to cut the feet and beard off that mount. Mounts take up too much room. I wish someone would would come get the thing and take it to a store or something.

I’ve gotta restaurant that would look great in! Wish I were closer to ya. Beautiful work none the less

If you find someone headed that way with room you can sure have it.

It would look great n lot of places - hope u get it BC

Man what a nice gesture. I’ll sure send you a pm if I find myself over your way👍

Thanks buddy. I’d hate to take it too far away to where Jstocks couldn’t admire his work when he wanted to though. I’d sure be proud of it!

Very cool looking turkey mount - extremely unique

I am guessing it would be a conversation peace in your restaurant

Heck I was thinking the nice gesture was for someone to take the thing. Y’all don’t know how close I am to just throwing the thing in the trash. I’m tired of moving it. It’s sitting in my garage right now.

Bert does good work. It’s not the mount at all, it’s the room the mounts take up.

Not too long ago I was at my Dads and told him I was fixing to cut the horns off my deer and throw the forms in the burn pile. Guess he thought I was joking til he walked out and I was sawing them off…lol

I’ve moved like 4 times since 2018 and I am tired of lugging all this mess around.

I have thrown one in the trash.

Does anyone possibly want this mount?

Sent you a PM, might be able to take it off your hands.
