Beautiful bird Magwa!  How much meat did you get?

Idk about out there, but birds here are 20-25# (25# bird is huge). Figure 3-4 # of guts and what not. Lots of guys here just breast them, which is a waste. The legs aren't like your pen raised birds more tendons and what not, but they're good smoked or used for stock.

That is absolutely the best turkey stalking I've ever seen documented!

@Magwa, great haul on your fellow. I once worked on a wild game ranch in Texas for 3 years of high school. We had turkey feeders to keep them plump and would harvest 15-20 Toms each year for our various parties.

@planeflyer21, I was thinking the guy in the video was going to take the bird barehanded at first. That would be a sight.
