One for the wall.

[BiG Boar]

Last day day of the season. Got a beautiful drake and not a hole to be found. Destined for the wall. What position to mount it in? BB

Good job,!

I tried to get a drake shoveler to mount a few times kept getting hens.

Please send a Pic when done.
Who are you using to mount.?

[wingmaster]

Doesn't even look like it hit the ground. Beautiful specimen.

[Sasqman]

That is a nice looking bird. Well done!

Hey Dave .... you got one too, I shot a few this year also ... seems there numbers are up. The drakes look cool, eat ok too.

If you recall my wall mounts, flying to show the wings out with colors is a must with that guy. Taking off the water, jumping up wings down is a cool position too.

[Foxton Gundogs]

Beauty Boot Face I guess it's one for the wall.

[BiG Boar]

I think I remember yours curly.

Not it sure who I'll get to mount it yet.

[Dutch Ppoacher]

[Trojans16]

[digger dogger]

Well Dad and I certainly are not doing them any more ...... Fur and Feathers, maybe Ray Wiens, not sure if he does birds though. They are Pricey now a day compared to the 70's haha used to be like 60 to 75 bucks each ........ wow I'm old.

[Stone Sheep Steve]

Beautiful bird Dave!
I heard you also killed a book grouse this year. 6" pecker on him!?

Awesome bird Dave, good season finisher...

[itsy bitsy xj]

I've wanting to get out all week but life got in the way, plus I was linda lazy on one day

[walks with deer]

I know a old man in maple ridge that is pretty affordable and does nice birds.

I was going to get a drake shovel, wood, mallard, pintail done but I live in the interior now and goals shifted.

[Dutch]

Nice duck in 40 years I have shot 1 full color drake spoony gave it to an old friend that had it mounted waiting for the next one thanks for the post ,great to see

[Foxtail]

My dads buddy does all of his own, I like the downward flight with sort of wings tucked. I'll see if I can get a pic. Beautiful duck!

[Dano]

That's an awesome bird!
I've only seen the ones posted here in that condition during hunting season. We have been seeing an increase during the spring when we are out doing nest work so I guess with the mild weather it makes sense we are seeing some show up at the end of our season.
Thanks for posting, nice to see they are around!

Pretty spoon. I never tire of looking at the drake plumage of any species of waterfowl

[Ovis17]

Ya Glen Browning x 2. I don't believe that Frank from F&F is taking on any new projects but you could always check.

[BiG Boar]

I probably will go with Glenn. I have used him before. This one the dog did not get to retrieve. She was quite upset.

[Kudu]

Awesome duck Dave - when do you hope to have it back
