I had a buddy help call in a few birds Saturday morning on his family farm in Greene County and I was able to knock this one down. Considering it was my first year turkey hunting I was pretty happy to get a spring and fall bird.  |

Thanks. I was a little bit upset that the place I checked him in didn't weigh him. "It's deer season and we aren't set up to weigh turkeys."

Nice bird. The one I killed had a fan identical to yours. Feathers just developing. Pretty cool.
Congratulations.

The one I killed last year in bow season I took to my taxidermist and asked him if he wanted it to make a stuffer decoy out of. He said it was next to impossible to do it right with a fall bird as it has "pin feathers" just growing back and they would not stay in place... |
