Silver Phased Eastern???

[Flydown]

One of my customers showed me a picture of this turkey today that he said was killed in Jefferson Co. AL this morning and he wanted to know what the heck it was that he shot. I told him it looked like a Silver Phased Eastern but heck I'm not sure, I wanted to find out what you guys think.

Thanks,
Chris.

That is want I have heard Lovett Williams call a Smokey Grey Phase Gobbler. I kill a bearded hen like that back 2005. That is a awesome bird.

Yep. Its a smoky grey.Ive never seen a gobbler that color but I have 2 smoky hens where I hunt.

I hope it's going on the wall, at least a cape mount. That thing's beautiful!

Smoke phase. Very rare for a gobbler. More hens are smoke phase than gobblers.

Cool bird. A couple years ago I had pics of a jake like that and a few hens. I was hoping to see the jake as a tom but haven't seen any of them again since that spring.

Cool looking bird. It would be cool to shoot something like that.
