[QUOTE="Slack One, post: 1093696, member: 2270"] I'll put up a pic later when I get my camera back. I ended up bagging an 18 pounder Saturday evening. 9 1/4" beard, 1" spurs. Very low fat, and some very pretty meat. Can't wait to cook this sucker up! Only "boo boo" was that I nearly blew it's fool head off with a second shot. I'd pegged it from about 25 yards solidly, and it hit the ground in a big black puddle, twitched a few times, then didn't move any more. When I got over to it though, the crazy thing (which had shot holes in it's head and neck, and a pretty obviously broken neck) still tried it's damnedest to fly away when it saw me, and started flopping around in circles and making gurgling noises. I couldn't stand to see it suffer so I shot it again...and made cleaning it a lot harder as I thought the head was going to end up popping off while I was yanking the feathers off :( Earlier in the day I'd had a more exciting hunt where I was actively trying to get down a fence row to head a group of toms off "at the pass" that was ruined when one of my loco relatives chose just that time to drive his four wheeler into the area and panic the group. Once the turkeys started off at a fast trot, no way I could get into a shooting position in time to bag one :/ [/QUOTE]
