looking for turkeys... found horns
« on: April 16, 2011, 10:58:31 PM »
i dont usually post on here but this you've gotta see. my brother in law and his family have been searching for these sheds for awhile now. his brother and i went up this afternoon to look for turkeys and stumbled upon these massive horns maybe 75 yards into our hike. cell phone pics dont do them justice. yes massive....

I'd take antlers over turkeys any day. Those birds have been giving me fits. Nice finds, and welcome to the site.

I don't think I would have been much into turkey hunting after finding those.  Nice find!
