Beautiful bird, Bo! Congratulations!

That's an awesome looking bird.

Nice! Congrats!

Awwwwww yeahhh! Congrats Bro!

Great looking bird BO!
congrats my friend. Round 2 for us this morning..

Beautiful bird!

I agree that's a super looking bird. Would make a great mount. Even a fan mount.

Congrats Bo! That's a beauty.

Nice Thunder Chicken Bo. Congrats on a early Bday bird.....

Thanks guys! He's definitely the biggest, prettiest, and most satisfying bird I've ever taken.

I'm having this bird mounted in full body strut.... with a plaque in memory of my best friend Mike Romer! If it wasn't for him, I would not have ever had a chance at this gorgeous majestic bird. I miss ya buddy!!

BTW, wanted to give a big thanks to my wife for stopping by and helping me out with the series of 'indafield' photos that she took for me yesterday! WOOT WOOT

Congrats Bo

Nice one. Congrats!

Sweet, congrats.

I appreciate the comments fellas.

How many "blonde tipped" birds do you guys see each year in Indiana?
I don't recall too many, myself.
But I also only watch THIS Indiana hunting site

Great looking Tom. Those tips are like a Rio Grande's.

One for Romer! Good job, Ernie!

Yeah those tips are more blonde than my Rio's from Kansas

Congrats Bo the jake I shot this mornin had white tips like that and the big strutting tom with him had them also. Where was you huntin we was in clay co

WTG....

Pretty bird Bo! Congrats!

Beauty of a bird, congrats!

congrats

Good deal, congrats.

Thanks y'all

Unfortunately it looks like I have to find a new taxidermist in order to get my Turkey mounted. Never thought I'd have that issue again...

So any good Turkey guys out there that y'all might know of and recommend?
Thx

+1 on hoosier trapper

I've seen their mounts.... I'd like to look at some other's work.
Thanks guys

Bo You might call Eddie down at N-Da-Woods taxi he is down in Centerton.His cell # is 317-627-527six. You can run over to Brandon's and look at his mount. Eddie done the work on it.

Ernie,

Here is the best around for turkeys IMO. Be about 2 hr drive for you though. I think Jeremy French does the best on deer but not sure if he's doing turkeys yet or not.

WOW, great looking work there.

Those turkeys look incredible. Truly an art form to make them look so lifelike....

T.A.... your PM box is full

Bob mercer . Life like taxidermy. Brazil Indiana. He does great work! Call me or text me a and I'll hook you up. I saw his recent bird mounts. First class! He's doing a bear for me now.

Emptied

UPDATE

Well I got THE call today....
Mine&Romer's 2014 Wild Turkey is done, and ready for pick up!
Will be going down this weekend to pick him up, since it is a good 2hrs from here.

I told them that his neck was not solid red like a lot of mounts that I see... and I wanted more blue in the neck. So after freeze drying and painting, they sent me a couple pics to see what I thought.... and I think it looks purty darn good.

Can't wait to see the whole bird now!

WHO YOU CALLIN UGLY?! :p

Good deal!! Looks great!

Cody, after seeing their work in person... there is no doubting that! And they are exactly who I chose to mount my bird, in memory of my best friend!!

So I want to thank you, and whtlhaven for the recommendation!
