WOW Huntnma..that's awesome hearing all those birds,,
At the Green Swamp I;ve heard 3 now and saw 2 hens driving down the dirt roads..
One hunter got a 22 pound...11 1/2 inch beard and 1 1/2 inch spurs.

That is one big Osceola..

that is a nice gobbler.....a friend of mine went onprivate land in Osceola countyand killed a 21lber, 1 1/4 inch psurs and a 12 '' beard, It looked like it was 13 -14 inches, so I broke out the tape measurer....Florida has some nice birds, we really do...later on in the season they lose weight but to begin with, it's pretty darn good weights.The one WMA I work on, 4 of the birds taken were 19 lbs...19.6 was the biggest...which was one of the guys I work with,his bird had 1 1/2 inch spurs too...2nd bird he ever killed...2nd year turkey hunting, he was so happy...a lot of 3-4 year old birds being killed., it's great.:)

It sounds like if it hasn't come to anything that you tried so far, it probobly won't come next time. Unless it's a tom that's a lot bigger than any other turkey around, I'd give up on it and try hunting another bird. Sounds like you've got a few other birds around. Good luck.
