Had to share my wifes turkey from WI in a different thread, we went out this morning and had this one come in, so I had to post it also.
After what seemed like 10 minutes of "no you shoot it, no you shoot it, back and forth to each other, I finally helped this one go night night, before he started walking off.
He's the 3rd smallest I've taken in last 3 yrs.
Last yr and yrs before birds were exactly identical and killed on the same day.
Last yrs and yr befores were killed on Mothers Day, 20 lb, 12" beard, 1 3/8" spurs.
This one was 22lbs, 11 1/4" beard and only 1 spur that measured 1 1/8". Other must of gotten broke fighting.
Nice bird, but I wont get a full mount on this one, since I got the last 2 mounted.
