Re: Old monarch removed!
Congratulations on an awesome hunt requiring expert tactical maneuvering! Can you explain about a spur being gone leaving the bone spur only?

Re: Old monarch removed!
I think he means the outer spur shell was pulled off and only the bone remained.. looks like that in the Pic.. you can pull the outer shell off the bone part..
Congrats.. truly an awesome recap.. I can tell the respect you had for him by the story you told.

Re: Old monarch removed!
Nice, Congrats!!! I've seen it a few times at the farm we hunt at, there will be a dominant bird and he will shut it down but if you are able to kill him then it's like the flood gates open to other birds gobbling.

Re: Old monarch removed!
Great job and good luck on the rest of the birds gobbling their heads off. Hopefully it will be a crazy end to the season for you.

Re: Old monarch removed!
That old hay bale has seen a lot of dead turkeys.
