Also we had the annual camp bitch contest and our friend "the mailman" in the last minute pulled out a victory kill.  He not only killed the smallest tom in camp, he killed the smallest tom in camp history.  We nicknamed the Tom "Pipsqueak".  The Mailman also was given the "Camp Bitch Lifetime Achievement Award"...I love Turkey Camp.. :chuckle:

Wow! Nice job, sounds like you guys had lots of fun!
I would rather be a conservative nut job, than a liberal with no nuts, and no job!

Cool tradition. 
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Just found out one of my buds nailed a big bird this morning out of camp...We had a bird we called "Bin Laden"  He was very elusive sticking to the cliffs and rocks, hiding out with the hens, Always had his scouts watching the backdoor..putt putt!. I came close two years in a row but he was tough to kill.  Nightmares of Bin Laden laughing while he gobbled...I can say that Bin Laden was snipered this AM, but I heard there was some wrestling involved..I will have photos posted tonight..also heard a rumor he was a double beard...we will see.. :)

Well..not the best picture of Bin Laden..After a long cat and mouse back and forth of calling and waiting...Bin laden came in and my bud shot him at 10 yards ..the turkey then went butt over tea kettle off of a cliff.  My bud jumped on him and pulled half of the beard off and half of the tail fan.  Then he went butt over tea kettle six times down the hill and when he righted himself the turkey rolled into his lap...I had to put the fan back together just to get a picture of it..18lbs 9" beard 7/8" spurs.. A total of 8 birds from camp...

Oh and he had the lucky monkey with him!
