Magdump, don't listen to the jealouse haters,

you shot a genuine mossy head, a bonafide trophy and should be proud of it.
the only down side as you already found out is they smell a little worse than regular easterns do.

I read this to my wife and we are sitting here crying we laughed so hard. You have gotta be kidding. Nice.

Yur problem is that you didn't cook it rite.  Ya gotta cook them circlin' fall hens like ya do them carps.  Ya cook 'em slow over a fire on a board fir at least 36 hours. After that, ya throws away that tarkey and ya eats the board! Deeeelishus!  Don't ya know nuthin?! How long ya bin at this here tarkey huntin' anywho?!

We were hunting in Alabama one time with some guys we traded hunts with.
They didn't turkey hunt but came down to camp one night to hang out. 

The two guys went for a ride in their ranger that evening and came back telling us about all the turkeys that were roosted over some railroad tracks. 
Me and my buddy put a plan together and were pretty excited about the next morning. 

We slipped in well before daylight and used binoculars to find the birds in the trees. About the first good crack of light and we figured out we were sitting under about 20 buzzards.

Yeah I don't know if I read this right or not or if I'm just takin this the wrong way but sounds like to me you shot yourself a turkey vulture.

I was thinking the very same thing! When he typed circling and coming down to eat the dead cow I thought... I've never seen a turkey fly in circles like basically a turkey vulture would.

If this isn't a joke I'm gonna have to say the person shot a turkey vulture. Like 100%

I think the best recipe for vulture is sliced thin eaten raw with a side of bleach to kill the bacteria

GobbleNut has it right except he missed a couple steps. First you soak it in milk for 24 hours(it helps to remove the gamy taste), then boil the chit out of it for 3-4 hours(removes the rest of the gamy taste), then proceed like GobbleNut described.
