Well Scott's busy scouting for his next one so here's Scott's Big guy from this morning.

24 lbs., 9" beard, 1.125" Spurs taken this morning at 25 yards with 1.5 oz. of #6 with his Ithaca NID Super 10.

that's a nice bird and taken with my favorite gauge a 10 ga...charlie

Wow,that is one big a** bird Scott, congratulations. I've never shot a bird that weighed that much, surprised they can get that big up there. I've got my 2 this year, but still have a tag in another state, so may get out again this week.
Sure going to miss shooting with you guys this year.

Congrats to Scott, nice bird! My nephew and I were hunting this morning. Things were quiet except for one really hot bird off the roost. He worked beautifully and gobbled relentlessly. He was coming in and putting on a real show. He was probably 10 yards out of range when suddenly three sultry little yelps came from down over the ridge. See ya :bigbye:

Day 4 and the turkeys win again. They are not crossing over to my place this week and I can't hunt over there. I am back to work for 6 days then I'll have another week off to chase them again.

Scott, Congrats on that 24 pounder. Awesome bird!

So at 4:45 this afternoon I'm upstairs in the house with the window open and what do hear out behind the the back pasture? Gobble Gobble Gobble! LOL They must be crossing over in the afternoon. Ugh.

The turkeys 🦃 win more often than not.

Turkey Bowl
 

The gobblers and I have our annual Turkey Bowl. They get one point (an extra Point) for every day they outsmart me with their pea-sized brain. I get seven points (touchdown and extra point) for each one I get with my pea-sized brain trying to think like a turkey. They are winning 21-14 as of today, because I missed an easy touchdown last week which would have given me the trophy. With a limit of three the best I can do this year is a tie if I score tomorrow. If not, they win because I am numerically eliminated from the championship.
