Turkey feathers

[jbbear]

Hello all, What should I do  to save the wings off a turkey a buddy of mine shot today? I would like to use them for fletching in the future. Any help would be great.

I just use tin shears  and cut the base of the primaries and secondary's and stick them in the freezer if they are clean. If bloody or dirty damp wash let dry and put in  the freezer. Most don't freeze them unless its the whole wing till they can cut the feathers but I do out of a routine from my dad.
