Default Couple of Hoosier Gobblers

My nephew and I took a pair of identical twin gobblers a day apart last week. Both weighed 26# with 10" beards and 22+ mm spurs. Estimated them to be three year olds. First turkeys for both of us in four years of hunting. I took mine at 9:00 a.m. opening day and he took his the next day at 9:30 a.m. We would have been happy with a couple of jakes for our first turkeys!
