This bird took about an hour and a half to come in to my set up. He was with 2 hens. When he saw my strutter decoy, he ran to it and flogged it 3X before I killed him. Great opening day hunt. 20 pounds, 11” beard, and just over an inch spurs. Franchi 20 gauge, Apex 9 TSS.
Those are completely different, and I’ve got some of them. They’re good, but not near as good as the ones I’m looking for…at least in my set up. Appreciate it though.
I know it’s a long shot, but does anyone have any 20 gauge 3” Federal Heavyweight 7 turkey loads. They’re discontinued but I’m sure there’s still out there so I thought I’d try. I’ve attached a link that shows them.

Good luck. You never know what might happen. A friend was in Mexico a couple weeks ago hunting Coues and came across two Lions fighting. He was able to kill one of them. Said one had a claw in the others head!
