WOW .... thats a beautiful bird , is he going to have a full body struting mount done ?
I know I would , there's some of those off color phase birds out where I hunt and with any luck I hope to get one like that.
Tell your friend I said CONGRATS :)

Looks like one of the neighbors pet turkeys got loose.:D

In my area, a farmer's kid had a white domestic hen escape and breed with a wild tom and 3 of the poults grew up to look like that jake. More than likely that happened, but still sweet lookin bird

Yeah.... around here we had a neighbor lose all of the domestic turkeys when a tree knocked the fence down..... must have breeded with the wilds because we see albino toms/jakes/and hens just about every year now. Thats prob what did happen. But it is still an awesome turkey. I would have liked to bag it.

very cool.... Congrats to your buddy

Pretty cool. Don't them them everyday where I hunt.

Nice...congrats!

no he said he could not get a full body mount because his shot and the turkey flopping around messed up the feathers too bad.

Awe ... man thats too bad it would have been a really cool mount but it's still a trophy in anyones book.
