Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default Big Tom Down!

I posted the story on my teams link herehttp://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=3341139&mpage=10
The bird weighed 24 lbs. His spurs measured 1 1/8 inch on his left and 1 3/16 inch on his right and his beard was a meager 9 inches for a total of 65.125. It was an awesome morning.

Dang bud nice hooks!!!!

Congrats........now what do you have planned? Full mount or?

If you do not - those spurs would sure look good in a wingbone call.

Easy for you to do and I will help..

here this could be the outcome!
