If its a trophy and you want it done right, I'd get with one of the guys on here that use beetles.

I would beetle clean and put on any plaque you want if you can get me 1 Rio Grande Tom turkey and 2 hen rios!
Beetles are the ticket and I am sure you have somebody close that can help you out. But if the above offer is something you can do I will pay shipping both directions!!!
Thanks,
Auggie

I run a beetle colony year round. Beetles are awesome. A prepped skull takes 2 days to beetle clean.

Spick and span when complete.
