I blasted a huge Green Head 36 years ago, proud as could be marched into Safely's Sporting Goods wanting my prize forever frozen in time. To his credit Lauren ? told me that the bird would look like hell in a few years because the feathers weren't fully plumed. Heart broke I took him home and ate him.
Over the years I have shot some really nice mounts. I donated most of them to the Schools Science Departments as my boys went through school.
Now days I really like my Digital Picture Frame, with the constant scrolling memories across the screen.
Lee Ault did me right with a Decoy Style mount, but most prices are just too spendy for my tastes. Then unless you glass case them you have to dust them carefully.
There is ALWAYS gear I would rather buy or upgrade, than spend my money on dusty feathers.
Not a Rookie Mistake at all!! Just another memory.
