Title: WORLD SLAM IN LESS THEN A YEAR.
Post by: slamman on March 11, 2012, 03:17:05 PM

It all started last year March 19th 2011 for a Single Season Royal Slam and actually ended March 7th 2012 with a World Slam in less then a year what a roller coaster ride it was.

Even though I did not accomplish getting an Ocellated with a bow I ended up with a truly one of a kind 4 SPURRED Ocellated. Any bird would have been a trophy in my books but I was blessed with a magnificent bird.

2-SPURS ON EACH LEG 4-SPURS TOTAL LEFT SPUR 1 15/16" SECOND LEFT SPUR 1 1/16TH RIGHT SPUR 2" SECOND RIGHT SPUR 14/16".
