I display mine very similar only i insert the beard into the used shell casing and screw a mini i hook into the primer to hang it from looks really cool that way
If I get one this spring hunt or fall I'll have to give this a shot it's male only during spring hunt here in Wisconsin. I only got my first turkey last year and it was a younger hen.
Leave the cartridge knuckle! Clean as much meat off as possible , get a CLOTHES HANGER THAT HAS THE CLIP ON EACH SIDE. SPREAD THE FAN , CLIP EACH END ON THE CLOTHES HANGER, THEN PUT BORAX OR SALT ON THE EXPOSED FLESH SIDE OF THE FAN AND SIMPLY HANG IN A COOL DRY. PLACE. Wait few weeks and shake off the BORAX or Salt AND hang any way want. Much simpler 🤷♂️

I really enjoyed this. I often wondered how people mounted these parts of the turkey. This was very interesting.
That bone is the tailbone. Thanks for the tips, great video!
Great video! That bone you are talking about on the tail fan, I use a wire cutter. Works great.

Looks good I stopped saving the Fans and just keep Beards and Spurs. I like the String and Bead for the Beard and Spur enjoyed it
Is one of those fans and beards Jareds that he shot? I never realized how pretty turkey feathers are 😊
One question I do have is if it’s necessary to put the fan/ beard in the freezer? If so how long minimum?
if you can't get to it right after garvest, yes I'd put it in the freezer. it's just to not have it spoil before you can get to it.
Love the vids
Cool way to display
