RE: Lets see your biggest bird.

I did not kill this turkey but,I thought everyone would like to see it. My father and I are turkey taxidermist and we were fortunate enough to be able tomount this bird a year or two ago.Itwas the Non-typical world record, killed in Kansas by Jay Brantwho was hunting with Don Sisson and T-N-T Outfitters of Fort Scott, Kansas. It may still be the record but im not forsure on that. It had 11 beards, a couple of them were to short to show in the mount. Its weight was 22 lbs, and spurs where 1 inch long. All together it scored 123.5 points. I really enjoyed mounting this rare turkey.
