Title: Federal turkey thug and strut shok
Post by: northms on February 13, 2014, 08:10:21 PM
I was at bass pro tonight hoping to find some turkey thug federals because of the great price and reviews on here. I saw the federal magnum strut shok but no turkey thug, and wasn't sure if that was the same thing.

Regardless I bought two boxes of the Winchester Longbeard XR 3" 6's because of the great things I'd read. They were 19.99 each. Plenty of the stuff and Jackson, MS bass pro.

Turkey Thugs are a Wal Mart exclusive! The Strut Shoks are a pretty good load but they won't come close to those LongBeards.

Gotcha. I called walmart today and they said they didn't have any turkey thugs either.

Of course I'm not sure if the fella looking for them knew what he was doing.

I called Madison MS walmart but I don't think the guy knew what he was looking for. When bass pro said they had the strut shok I thought it might have been the turkey thug.

We have a ton here in NY where I live & I would offer to pick you up some and mail it to you but thanks to the a$$ that is governor here, I would probably end up with a fine or jail time. Tried to order some longbeards to try and forgot that you can't send ammo by mail anymore..... >:(
