18 LBS. 3 oz.
 
Candace it's hard to believe that bird only weighed 18/3 he sure looks a lot heavier than that. He looks like he would hit 22lbs. at least. Once again great lookin Turkey!

Doetrain
that is what he weighed in that basket with his feet and head hanging out lol

Here is the NWTF records for weight, some aweful heavy birds in here. You would have to go to the Ohio dnr for their records.

This NWTF page is great, you can break it down by state or species, whatever....enjoy
