10 more days and I'll finally be out!

9 days for me! Soggy, with all those birds, I sure hope you can get one!

Haha, I hope so too.

3 days and counting. The cold weather has kinda shut them up, but they are coming out of it hopefully.

Hey Thunder Chickens, just got my first gobbler!

scored 71.789, not bad for a first turkey!

Joe

Hell yeah SEK!!! Way to go, that's a dandy for a first one, what are the measurements?

Beard was 11 and 3/8
Spurs were both 1 1/4 inch
and it was 24.625 lbs

I am still on cloud nine!

Kick ass SEK chalk up one for the thunder chickens. Sounds like he was a hell of a bird. CONGRATS.

Wow, that's a big bird. Way to go! Mounting him?

Dont have the money for that, I am disabled and it is tight! So I have a friend doing a cape, with the beard in the shell brass I used, probably put the spurs on a necklace or something. The thing is, this was on public land, right by the road. I mean the kid that helped, was 16 ( his mom and I know each other), got of going to school to help me hunt! He and I had not know it, but had scouted almost the all the same spots, so we teamed up. A week earlier during the Youth/disabled hunt weekend, he got his little brother a 29lb turkey. But the spurs and beard were not as long as mine. Check out my Myspace at
www.myspace.com/sekoutdoors, check out the "hunting pics" on the profile and you can see the bird.
