Can anyone help me? I need to know what is the best video out there to mount a strutting turkey. I've had a few people give me ideas, but I'd like more because there are a lot of things I could use to mount a strutting turkey. Thanks

NBot to sound disrespectful...but I answered you yesterday when you posted the samne thing. Buy the dang video and Breakthgrough Book from WASCO and kwit posting the same question when you already have the answers...plus...TONS of answers on the ORANGE SEARCH BUTTON of ARCHIVES.
! ETCC
You guys come on here with too many dead heads up your ass. I asked these questions cause there are so many videos to choose from. For some of you guys think you have all the answers, but aren't willing to lift a finger to help out. All I want is the best possibe help on a strutting turkey, and only one or two people reply. I wanted more opinions. Anyways, any help would be great.
P.S. as for the search button that did help out a litte thanks for that.
One reason for not getting an answer is some of us have never seen the videos.So we cannot reply
The Best video is only an opinion. Yes thats right! If a beginner got lucky with a (supply company) video, the beginner will say that was the best tape available.
So what video is best? None in my opinion.
You are not going to learn anything more than what each video will tell you, So maybe you need them all.
I think you need to appologize for your rude statment MR BEGINNER!
ETCC was square with you and you jump on him. Disrespectful. Momma should wear your butt out with a nice dose of Peach tree tea!
James,
I have a video call Turkey Mounting Basic, Strutting Turkey, featuring Joe Febrebee. I bought it form McKenzie Taxidermy Supply. The video is good and Joe explains everything with details. The body and parts he uses he calls it, the Turkey System. You can find the Turkey system in the McKenzie Taxidermy supply catalog. I did a turkey following his video and it turned out nice. It was simple but took a little time. The next Turkey I do I will do a little different but use the basics from the video.

ETCC got what was coming to him, and dito to you on what I wrote for him. Some of you guys are so full of yourself it's funny. AS for the videos go. Other people watch them and if the video teaches them well then that's what I want to hear. I also wanted to know what video not to buy. So if I wanted to hear you guys cry and whine like babies cause I posted the same thing a few time I will name a post cry and whine cause people keep on posting the same thing. You guys have too much time one your hands when you come on here and just complain, cause thats all I've been reading on the forum. Anyways any help would be usefull. Thanks
Did momma take your SUCKY AWAY? Yep Boy you got some growing to do.
I admit I dont know a lot about taxidermy, but I do know enough to get by. Sorry pee on. Looks like you are more than a notch under my belt/ Dont hang your nose on my zipper when you leave.
John C your one of those guys who lives with his mom in a one bedroom apartment and never get out to see the real world. You think your life is great cause your mommy pays all your bills. Your one of these fat guys that sits on the computer all night long hopeing ot find your life. Well buddy the only mounting you've been getting is from your shop. As for my nose on your zipper, well you keep telling yourself your not gay. Then after that try getting a off wellfare so I don't have to pay your lazy ass to sit home all day and do nothing. Anyways it's people like you that make the world it is today. Nothing but crap.
P.S. Oh, now I know where I've seen you. Your the one with monkeypox.
Step up to the head of the Class...yopu have just been Awarded 'Asshole OIf The Century' birdbrain.
John C is old enough to be yoiur grandfather and years in the business so-much-so...he alreadt forgot more than you'll ever know.
If you're so damnd smart...buy EVERY TAPE MADE...from EVERY DEALER...then when someone with intelligence posts the same question down the line...you can tellum...in yer own elequent style..."Buy the damn things and find out for yourself".
Thought I recognized the smell...ask mommy to change your diaper...smells like a skunk crawled up your rectum and died...and blowing out of your mouth.

I told some guy thats so old he farts dust to go screw himself. Oh no cry cry cry. You guys have no life at all. Just because you know a little taxidermy you think you run the world. Well think again. Your lives are pathetic and you just can't face it. You hide behind those dead animals all day. Until you guys get your head out of you asses you wont realize whats out there.
P.S. It's been fun
Nope James, I am not like you. I left home 30 odd years ago and have only been back to visit.
James where have you been? to town and back. Hum, I do have taxidermy license in more than one country. DO YOU?
I also have traveled through a lot of the former Eastern Block countries, have you? I was there when (IN EAST BERLIN TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE WALL FELL) the wall came down, where were you? or were you even hatched yet?
I visited three countries last year, what did you do?
James the loud pooping sound we will here will be your head popping out of Your ANUS!
Wake up little boy they world dont revolve around you.
I did not see you at the WTC, will you be at the NTA show?
Have you ever lived overseas? this does not include living in American managed housing, I have 16 Elsenberg, Forcheim FRG.
If you should need a American guide for a Europeon trip, I would be willing to educate you. There is so much you dont know.
When will you graduate high school, James?
So you've been a few places good for you. Maybe you should go write a book since you've been such a busy boy. As for the Berlin wall going down to bad it didn't come down on you. Just remember that for all of those things to count you have to leave your room. You can't look up a country on your computer and say you were there. It dosen't work that way. Sorry. You tell me some stories when you work with millions of dollars everyday at work. Sorry dead animals don't count. That every move you do is very big for the company that your working for. Oh I"m sorry taxidermy is all you can handle well I'm sorry. I'll go now so you can go back to you mommy. As for Europe I've been there a few times don't like it too much. Sorry.
NONE of the turkey mounting videos will teach you how to mount a decent customer-ready strutting turkey. Not a single one! Sorry, but all of the myriad details of mounting a strutting turkey can not be summed up in a couple of hours. If you really want to learn how to do a good job you will need to stick with it long enough to aquire experience of your own by mounting many of them.
The videos will each show you one person's approach using his or her favorite forms and methods. In some cases the taxidermist making the video is also selling a product which they endorse by using it during their seminar.
There just isn't a single best one. Any one of them will be of some use but none will give you everything you need to know.
Nancy M.
I was asking which one is the best starting out video. They will teach me some things which is better than nothing.
Any video will help you. But only when you understand what you are doing.
Your so funny.
Cally Morris had a three issue article. But you have to be able to read. Not that your mommy can't read and explain it to you.
Maybe you can come here and read it to me. I hope it has lots of pictures..
You cant afford taxidermy lessons from me.
Besides I will not change your diapers.
You've got to be use to playing with dicks by now. We all know your a fudge packer. As for your lessons I wouldn't let a blind person watch you.
Well lets look at your statment.
I know how to do a fairly good turkey mount.
You are asking for help.
I have allowed people to bring thier own animals into my shop and taught them the methods I use.
You still cannot mount a bird.
Almost any mount I send out of the shop could be entered in a show and will in most cases take a ribbon.
You are still struggling on turkey.
Over the years I have given many seminars at state and regional shows, and judged many state shows.
You still cant mount a turkey.
You run your mouth and cannot back it up. I on the other hand can back mine up and will if need be.
Since there are dozens of James that read this board, I appologize to the ones that come here and ask questions in good faith.
To the one idiot, better luck on your next turkey.
No more post ont his crap from me.
Mounted lots of boys that come to your shop
I make five time as much as you'll make in a year.
Your liveing with your mom still, and your life sucks.
I own my own house Truck, car, atv, boat, guns, ect.....
you spend all your life in a 5x5 shop.
I spend my life in a 34 floor building, and my office is twice the size of your whole shop.
You still fudge pack..
I get any girl I want.
Your whole day your playing with dead animals.
I"m still in my office working.
My bonus at the end of the year is what you make in a year.
Your life still sucks.
My life is great.
OH wow you can judge a dead animal and say it looks good wow, and you get ribbons.
I finish deals for my job and get money.
While you still get ribbons.
Just one more question for your little brain. How much food can you buy with a blue ribbon? Ya, thats what I thought. Goodbye..
P.S.Your life still sucks and you can't face it. You keep telling yourself it will get better, but first move out of your moms place.
Your pityful life, you owe for everything. I owe for nothing, hehe. So I should be charging you for your pityful whinning. Go see your shrink your meds need refilling.
Delusions of invinciblity? Homicidal tendoncies? Maybe some Prozac or other seratonin producing drug will help you.
From what I have read it may take you a few months to return to normal, if you were ever normal, but in any case it surly will help you.
Good luck in your job as a mailroom clerk and copy machine worker.
Sweet dreams.
You guys wish your jobs where half as good as mine. Just because you don't make real money at a real job dosen't make you a bad person. It just makes your life worthless. You guys sit around all day playing with dead animals telling yourself WHY. WHY am I doing this. Why don't I get a real job. Where can I make some real money. As for John I see your telling about your life again. Didn't your shrink tell you not to blame your problems on someone else. As for the bank owning my things. Well I do have some loans, but that is because I make enough money to buy what ever I want.
As for you the reason you don't owe any money to the bank is because you still haven't left your moms place. Stop sucking her tits and get off your fat ass and do something with your life. I'm sick and tired of paying for you trailer park trash wellfare warriors.
Son, just how stupid are you? You can only dream of the places I have been and the things I have done.
Now do you remember a saying? "Money cannot buy happiness."
What does it mean to you?
I don't have to keep up with the James to be happy. I don't need your copy-boy job. Never did, never will.
Arer you sure your mommy knows you are playing on the computer again.
When you grow up e-mail me. Until then go away child, go bother me.
The reason I dont owe the bank is called money managment. Maybe you should take a few classes when you get your sorry rear out of high school. COuld be good for you and stop your dreaming.
Bottom line is I know how to mount a turkey and you dont, you need a video. HAHAHAHAHAAAA
You know how to mount a Turkey, and so do I. I know mine isn't the best, but I don't care. Your life is all about mounting dead animals. WoW what a life. I only wish I could be that low on the food chain. As for my job you only wish your life was as great as mine. So little john, keep mounting those little animals thats the life I've always NEVER wanted. As for you money managment we all know your mom still give you weekly allowance. Get a life move out.
I'm not in second grade like you. I have a life and a great job unlike you again. I don't have time to play these little games that you play. I wont be back for awhile, but if I need help I'll make sure you'll be the first one to know. Hi little johns mom I know your reading this over his shoulder. You really need to move out, and let your mom live a better life. Just remember it's not to late to make your life better....Well maybe for you....GOODBYE LITTLE john
Ok, James we all know you cannot afford your own house, your own computer. Just because you have not cut your apron strings dont come in here and tell us your problems.
Sorry to hear Suicide hotline put you on hold again. Did you get the new number for poison control?
You dont have time to wasye get professional help and get it soon.
So who left thier compter on? Did you tell them you have been on the internet?
Get back to sweeping and mopping before you supervisor fires you.
