Just got my turkey back. Well just finished paying for it I should say. It was completed almost 60 days early.

For reference the tires on my Dodge are
Toyo 35-12.50xR17

Taxidermy was done by a Eric Schmidt of Alive Again Recreations in Corpus Christi,Texas. Eric specializes in birds. As a matter of fact birds are all he does.

That beard measures 10&15/16 inches.

Beautiful bird. Congratulations.

Thanks Caz!

I don't have a trophy room yet, but I gotta start somewhere!

Beautiflluy done bird. One of these days I'd love to bag one that big. So far, I've never had one that big even come close in the field.

Congrats on an awesome hunt and a fantastic trophy.

What a Monster of a Thunder Chicken!

I bet that thing will be the centerpiece of any trophy room it gets displayed in.

Just to let ya'll know I wasn't even hunting turkey at the time. I was sitting in a blind hoping for a fat whitetail doe to walk out or one of the ginormous hogs I had seen on this ranch. Weapon...375 H&H Federal 260gr Accubond.
Distance about 100yds and closing....he was running full throttle.
