I killed one on Cheaha Mountain (Tdega Natl Forest) in Spring of 1992 with 1-1/2 spurs. Killed one on the same ridge in the Fall of that same year with 1-3/8 spurs. That one weighed 23lbs (digital fishing scales) and had 11-1/2" paintbrush. Got him mounted. Don't guess I've ever killed another one over about 1-1/4. Seems like every bird I kill is 1-1/8 (always call them 3yr olds). I am dear friends with an older man from Talladega who has two birds: One with 2" spurs and another with 2-1/4" spurs.....both from Cheaha Mountain. If possible, I will try to get pics of that 2.25 bird...it's mounted in his cabin. I've never seen anything like it. I'd call bullcrap on that bird, except I saw it dead in the back of his truck. Nothing else was overly big about that turkey.
