Hey guys
I'm looking for mounting ideas (still undeicded if I want to mount it or not), but I shot a fully mature eagle head Blue Goose. This sucker is huge. The guys I hunt with says I should mount it. However, if I do, I don't know a good posistion, so I'm looking for ideas and picture of yours.

Wings cupped, legs down. Hang it from your ceiling.

My dad has an enormous blue goose mounted in his office. Biggest one I have ever seen. Mounted from the back, wings cupped, gear down. It looks awesome...

I have one standing looking to the left. Also have one in a flying position from right to left with the wings down. But I defanetly love the standing one.

Let me look. I've got another biggun mounted in the office here at the house that is mounted a little different. I've got a lesser canada mounted just like the Blue my dad has in his office. I'll got snap a pic of the blue and canada that i have here.

The back feathers on a mature bull eagle head IMO need to be displayed.
