This thread has me wondering if TN isn't producing the biggest easterns. In adition to my 28-4 monster that same year I killed a 25-3 bird. Last year I killed a 23-9. I heard about another 28+lbs Lincoln Co bird a few days ago. In 1986 there was a bird that broke the 30lbs mark killed here by a young boy. Makes me wonder. I learned a lesson with the 28-4 bird. If I ever am fortunate enough again to bust the head on another monster I will run to the nearest grocery store and officialy weigh it. That bird would be #1 in Lincoln Co and #4 in the state. The lessons we learn........reflexl
