I actually had no intentions of mounting them like this at first. But last year before my hunt my wife and I drove up to port Clinton Ohio to zinks. This is were Fred zink makes his calls for waterfowl and makes avian x calls for turkeys. We were buying bases for geese decoys. In his showroom we saw a rio mounted on barn wood like this. My wife thought it was really cool. Mine you I have 2 deer, 2 other turkey mounts, and 7 duck mounts in thru out our house. Not hiding in the garage or basement like some guys. So when she liked this style I said yep that's how I'll get the Gould's done. Lol. Happy wife happy life. Just dropped my ocellated off. I have the world slam but haven't mounted a rio or Eastern yet. So far all my turkey mounts are different poses.
