 My first two turkeys are going to a buddy of mine who is a DNR officer.  DNR is going to use them as decoys.  I got $150.00 each out of them which will cover supplies for a couple more practice birds.  He said they would take as many as I wanted to get rid of.  So I can keep getting my supplies covered until I finally produce a bird that is worthy of keeping.  lol  Couldn’t resist taking them to the woods to get a picture of them before they get shot a second time.  lol

Look great! That’s a really good setup to get plenty of practice.

Those birds look great Gary.  That DNR officer got one heck of a deal at $150.00 each.  Those look better than some I have seen charging $400-500 a bird.  Anyone know where I can get hold of a couple turkeys?  I have one and want to subscribe to the Insider (or buy the lifetime access video) but would like a couple to work on.

Are those freeze dried head or fakes?

Those are both unpainted freeze dried heads I bought from Boondocks Taxidermy.  I have one Tom in the freezer now to practice on but I have some guys that are going to give me a couple if they get one.  If I get an extra one you are welcome to it.  Turkey season just came in here Monday so there is plenty of time to get a couple more.
