i didn't get any pics. as i work in a grocery store a bird hunter was in getting a few things for a roady, adn said he just filled his tag. and he was on his way to DOUGLAS WY, and told me about this huge bird. i said well i never heard of a bird that big around here. he told me he took it to the local proceesor to get it scaled. and it was 32# on a state certified scale. so what did i do, well the minute he left a called greig at the processors. yep thats right 32# he says! wow[:-]

that's huge!, my personal best is 24lbs. I'd hate to have to carry that bird for any long distance back to the truck!

That is a huge bird, and I agree with carring that thing. I would have to use a deer cart. The largest bird on the NWTF records was a bird killed near Lexington, Kentucky weighing 34 plus pounds.
