So the next question. Who has a better beard? The Turkey or the hunter?

No contest for turkey here, I hope the bird can at least claim the victory on spurs.

That's awesome!

Congrats on a fine bird!

Congrats on your first one. Now go get one more (if I still lived in Corning, I would've been more than happy to try and get #2). Good job sticking with it too.

Sorry I have not replied to everybody before now, my girlfriend and my dog really miss me when I am away hunting so I wanted to spend a lot of time with both of them, the dog is more jealous of my hunting that the GF is. lol

Thank you for all the congratulations and the compliments, it means so much here than it could on social media as we all love the same sport here so it means so much more and so many of you have helped me along the way with advise and calls and more advise.

As far as the question of the bear goes I think the turkeys was longer and certainly thinker but I like to think my has more character

As to the Spurs the turkey has me for sure at this point, but I really do have to get the right foot checked out, I am either getting spurs in my heel or Plantar Fasciitis and they both run in my family and I certainly do not want to become a limb hanger!

Congrats man!!! The way this story started out, I figured you were going to the hospital, not killing a gobbler!! Boy was I wrong!! I know you have some physical problems, so I'm very happy your morning turned itself around in a big way!!
Congrats again!!
