Had a buddy taking a deployed soldiers wife trying to get her first bird. She want to send him a picture. He ask me where to hunt this area. I had seen this bird a time or two but can't get into this area. So I told him where he was and this is what he called in for her. I won't post a pic of her because I didn't ask but her husband said some thing about a half gallon. :o Sometime you should keep you mouth shut. 26 lbs. 10.5 inch beard 1 7/8 spurs. She was happy and so was he.

Hey Now! That is somebody's wife! :goofball:
Those are some spurs though... I'd be tempted to pull out the .243 if I saw a bird like that one. Great job on getting it done right!

The specs of this bird is just unbelievable. Wow, congrats.

THAT BAD BOY NEEDS A VISIT TO THE TAXI MAN! Good job guiding.
Dang :newmascot:
You might insult that bird by only calling him a stud. That is a true trophy right there.
Big hooks... got to wonder, was that really the boss bird, or was he a wimp, not fighting enough to wear down the spurs? Either way that is some real big hooks
O did in mention this was her 1st turkey.
I agree with most here. That bird needs to visit the taxidermist for sure.
