[QUOTE="Allen, post: 233210, member: 389"] Quite a few years ago I took my good friend's dad out turkey hunting with me in the badlands. I ended up killing a 26-28 lb tom, and my ex took one of about the same size. My friend's dad asked if he could take the foot with him back to NC. I was like "wtf, but of course" because I didn't know I was supposed to give a crap about the spurs. I can only imagine what TSA thought when he pulled them out of his pocket at the airport screening. He kept those ND (Merriam) turkey feet in his desk drawer for his remaining years to show his fellow North Carolinians what kind of birds we have out here. He got a huge kick out of our "jump out of the truck and run them down or sneak on them in a pile of straw bales" hunting style. I hunt them for the challenge and because I LOVE eating wild turkey. I never knew there was such a thing as a "trophy" turkey until several years later. RIP Phil, you were one of a kind. [/QUOTE]
