Spring turkey season has been open a couple of weeks here in Alabama. Killed a nice gobbler this morning... 22 pounds, 10 inch beard, 1.25 inch spurs.



Last week I killed an odd turkey. He had two beards, which is not the weird part, as we have killed several double and triple bearded toms over the years. The odd thing was, he did not have any spurs, none, nada, nothing. There was only a small bump under the leg scale where his spurs should have grown.

nice birds. congrats.

I killed a Eastern gobbler several years ago with no spurs, looked just like yours. Killed a Merriams the same year with no beard....

Good on ya!


Best,

I've been wondering what the Andy Turkey Count was for 2015. Sitting on number three here in Jackson. When I next see you I'll tell you about the opening day bird I killed with low brass #8 shot. Lucky for me, not so much for the gobbler.

Nice birds Congrats

Nice turkey! I really like the way you set up for pictures. I bet your photo album is a sight to behold.

Nice job

Sweet!

I killed a bird with just a bump on on leg and nothing on the other a few years ago. Big thick paint brush of a beard too.

Andy, I packed out number four this AM. What say you?

Will - I say, what is the limit for Spring Turkey down your way???? Congrats and keep up the good work.

Way to go Will.

I killed my third gobbler the other day in Tennessee. We can kill 5 in Alabama & 4 in Tennessee.

Very nice bird I get to kill one in my area it would be nice to be able to chase more birds for sure.

I was in Alabama in Feb for business. No turkey hunting then, but I did go striper fishing on Lake Martin - hammered them. I love Alabama - it is the only state I ever first set foot on via parachute.
