Mounting a turkey fan is the process of preserving and displaying the tail feathers of a turkey. It is a popular way to commemorate a successful hunt or to simply appreciate the beauty of these feathers. Turkey fans can be mounted in a variety of ways, but the most common method is to use a fan mount.
Fan mounts are typically made of wood or metal and have a series of hooks or pegs on which the turkey feathers are attached. The feathers are arranged in a fan shape, with the longest feathers at the top and the shortest feathers at the bottom. Once the feathers are attached, the fan mount can be hung on a wall or displayed in a case.
