Title: My annual 50% slam
Post by: Gooserbat on April 25, 2016, 02:35:25 PM
Living here in Oklahoma I can easily take a Rio and an Eastern.  Here are a couple of specimens from 2016.

This Eastern was 22# 7oz 10.75 beard and an 1" and a chipped 7/8 spurs.

These were 5hours apart.  Now you can hunt both subspecies only a good hour apart in their natural native range.  The kicker is gaining access to property that holds birds.  The farther south you go the farther west you'll find Easterns.
