Here are a few pics of turkey at our place. There seems to be about 5 different groups. I don't know much about how turkeys live though. Can't wait to get a few though.

I've had pics of older ones. Just didn't save them. These seem to be very young right? What is the 10pt deer equivalent in turkey?

Looks like jakes, so there should be some gobblers around. Most people determine a trophy bird by the length of the beard and/or spurs. Seen some that talked about the weight too.

IMO, they are simply corn guzzlers that become targets for my slingshot during deer season. They can be fun to hunt, but I just assume we didn't have any. With that said, I will be at my place this spring and try to call one in for my daughter grin

Looks like there was a good hatch last year, nice pics of jakes (last years gobbler hatch)

Spur length is part of what makes a trophy gobbler. Beard length and weight are also factors. Also best indication of age on gobblers is spur length, the longer the spur the older the gobbler
