30-something lb bird is probably the equivalent of a 500lb whitetail. Not true at all. Buddy of mines clients and himself in NE Kansas has killed several 28-32lb birds over the years. No he dont need to calibrate his scales either...lol

No he dont need to calibrate his scales either...lol That's a different thing altogether when you talk about Midwest turkeys.

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I called up an Emu one morning turkey hunting, thought about shooting it too, but didn't.

Been at it a long time and weighed a LOT of birds. I am skeptical of some of these weights in Alabama but if it makes you happy, carry on. FTR all my birds were weighed on IGFA certified scales. I didn't weight the Emu......

I didn't weight the Emu...... I didn't see you throwing out them 25 pound plus numbers. Your weights agreed with what I have witnessed. 18 pounds being a good sized bird in Wilcox county. BTW, does an Emu have spurs?

I don't know about Emu spurs but they will damn for sure peck the crap out of you if you let em get too close.
OlTimer , we hunted east side of Wilcox( Furman area) a lot and rarely killed a bird over 17 pounds, and a lot of them weighed 14-16 pounds, with thin long spurs and thin beards.

I got knocked out cold by a loose 2x4 on day as we drove into Oak Hill. I woke up in a white draped bed in a nice house right on the road, with an angel in white standing by the bed. Thought I was dead and had gone to heaven . Would of been about 1970-71 when I was 19-20 years old.
