bs,....oh really? here are spurs as compared to a 3" 12ga shell

this bird totalled over 78 points

Not to mention, the Kansas record typical stands at 88 4/8 points, their scoring is a bit different than the NWTF,..he doeesnt even make the Kansas top 20 list.

the Kansas nontypical record is 158 6/8,...both birds came from Frankiln County

Comparing them to deer, score wise, I'd say a 70 pt turk would be comparable to a 150-160 class buck in these parts.
