I watch The Hunting Public on Prime Video or Netflix (I don’t remember which) and they have a contest of length of the bird from tip of beak to tip of tail laying on its back. I think it is a great idea!

Actually, we have a few subspecies of turkey in this country: Eastern, Osceola, Merriam, Rio Grande and maybe another. Some are genetically bigger than the others so the contest should be separated into those sub-categories.

What about a Parker Gobbler Pin, just as we have a Doubles Pin? How about it B.O.D.?

How about a handicap system for using a smallbore (20,28 and .410) ?

You would get a smaller pin.

That's the plan Craig. The next one will hopefully be with a new to me 32" 20 Sterly and hopefully the 28 is next. Might have to wait until the fall/winter season though.

Maybe the pin is smaller but I guarantee the smile on my face would be huge.
