Title: 47 pounds of turkey
Post by: Muskie03 on May 10, 2016, 01:13:27 PM
One shot, 47 pounds of turkey, 6 inches of spurs, 20 1/2 inches of beard and 1 very large taxidermist bill.
The heaviest of the 2 birds was 27 lbs. Longest spur was 1 9/16" and the best beard was 11 inches.

Congratulations that's quite a haul.
I'm glad we can only kill one per day here in Tn. That would be a bittersweet hunt knowing I lost a chance to call in another gobbler.

After seeing those spurs, I'd claim self-defense.
