Default RE: Limbhangers and otherwise large turkeys

My biggest to date was
27lbs
1 3/8 inch spur
1 1/2 inch spur
11 inch beard
I watched this bird almost every day of season with another about the same size, but they were always in fields and wouldnt come to calls, the last morning, I had him roosted about 100 yards off of the field, the farthest he had been from it, and intercepted him as they went to the field.
I also have a few more over 25 lbs, and several more close to that. We have always had some thumper birds on my farm in Missouri, and this year looks like it is going to be as good as ever!
