New #2 Tom taken in Maryland

[JeffC]

Two National Wild Turkey Federation members measured the tom, and the paperwork has been submitted to the NWTF. According to their measurements, the bird had an 11-inch beard, along with one spur measuring 2.1875 inches and another measuring 2.125 inches. The longer spur is a pending state record, while the other ties the current state record for spur length.

I'd let him stop flopping before I picked him up.   Those could hurt a fellow. 

If I'm not mistaken the gobbler was killed by an older gentleman.   Congrats to him.

I hear they nicknamed that gobbler Freddy Krueger...
