My buddies big Rio Grande he killed yesterday.  It might be top 10 in WA state records for Rio Grande.
22.10 LBS (CERTIFIED), 10.50" beard and 1" spurs (both legs)  Gives it a 63.10 score.

Nice Tom!

Yeah, more like 1 1/8 now that I removed and measured them. Still among the larger I've taken. Rio's seem to grow'em bigger than Merriams on average, beards too.

My daughter and I met up with Sundance and a couple of his buddies again for a long weekend hunt.  As usual we had solid action all weekend, peaking when I coaxed this loudmouth into 10 yards with my new Phelps glass friction call  :tup:  This is my best bird yet, complete with a double beard.  Bonus!

Sundance pulled a rabbit out of that hat on Monday just before we left.  He tagged a great bird but I'll let him share the story and pics.  We went four for four last weekend so we were a happy bunch!

Well done!!  Nice bird. So do you have the turkey fever now?  It's the best illness there is!

Congratulations on your first bird. Here's to many more!

Definitely addictive!  Being able to call a bird in and watching him strut is something else!  I will hunt turkeys every yr!
