On The Hunt-Turkey Time!

Jacob Hoffman, 11, shot his first turkey in Claiborne County March 9. The gobbler had an 8 1/2-inch beard with 1 1/8-inch spurs. Hoffman used a 20-gauge shotgun.

Ron Bernier got his massive three-bearded turkey while hunting near Flowers. The turkey's longest beard was 9 1/2 inches, the second measured 6 inches and the third was 5 1/4 inches. The spurs were 1 1/8 inches long, and the gobbler weighed just over 20 pounds. Congratulations to both Jacob and Ron hunting in our great outdoors!
