    i just watched a video on youtube from Art of Taxidermy covering carving your own. My "test" one didn't turn out too bad at all. Good video

    It's easy enough to alter any foam bird form, either to go larger or smaller.

    Phesant size is a crap shoot. I rarely see a large one at all.
    Places raise these little Bluebacks that are tiny. Hunters don’t know the difference at these clubs. They just know they got a rooster.
