a mammoth Tenn bird a friend harvested
« on: May 20, 2011, 01:03:52 PM »
Here is an old timer from the Sunshine state. He retired from the Babcock Ranch after 27 years or so there. He is still a turkey thug !!!
Here is a bird he worked with on of my calls, a Black Limba and Walnut with Osage base and got the bird comming . However, the show was close by one of his all time favorite calls ---a scratchbox....made by none other than Tim Clayton.
The reall kicker here is that the bird was weighed on CERTIFIED scales, and it came in at 30.2 pounds !!!
A real monster of a bird !!!!
