I love this thing. Can't get any work done because I just keep staring at it, remembering the hunt. This was a bird I spent 3 solid days chasing in Kansas. The beard sticking out may look a little strange, but that is what he was doing as he came in. On his head I asked them to tone down the brightness of the red, and the amount of red as sometimes taxidermists overdo it a bit.

Awesome!!!  There's a reason those Morris fellers get so much business.

The mount looks fantastic :happy0064: The beard does not look strange at all...I see that regularly on strutting birds. Beautiful!

Very nice. Im still waiting to get a bird worthy enough to get mounted.

IMO, they are the best. Personally, I like Rick and Drake. Great job on the head!

Hey Spring Creek. I agree with you about liking the guys at the Turkey Roost. My buddy and I went there to get his two turkeys done and I went to Hazel Creek. Rick and Drake will take as much time as you want to talk them. They will let you look around as long as you like to try to decide how you want it mounted. Hazel Creek is more down to business. That being said, I think the work at Hazel Creek is better overall. Better consistency. They ALWAYS look perfect to me. Also if you notice the breast of mine is "tiled" and is "puffier" than all of the mounts I saw at TR. Not saying they can't do it, I just didn't see any and HC had lots of tiled birds. They are much harder to do than a smooth breast. My buddy liked his two birds from TR a lot. But when he saw mine he agreed he liked mine a lot more. But my bird probably cost twice as much as his. I am probably way too picky.
