Zusammenfassung:A game bird fan can be created using a fixation template having a plurality of radial lines extending from a center region that define a plurality of spaced grid portions circumferentially arranged in a semicircular pattern. The base of the tail is initially aligned with the center region of the template and each of the tail feathers are individually aligned with the spaced grid regions. The tail feathers are temporarily secured to the template after each individual aligning step. An adhesive or epoxy is applied to the quills of the tail in order to retain the tail fan after which the formed tail can be removed from the template. Optionally, a riser can be disposed on the fixation template and beneath the base of the tail prior to aligning, enabling the created fan to have a curved or bowed configuration.
