Thanks Swamp!
Have to do a few things this morning (domestic ) then I'm gonna jump a pond or two and see if I can put some duck in the freezer. Torrow is the BIG DINNER with all the folks and Monday just with our own kids. Hopefully Monday morning will provide some quality time with my shotgun. Deer is open for archery but it's just to dang warm to hang 'em and there are very few scrapes begun.
BTW the turkey will be domestic although I have a 16 and a 20 and a 22lber of the Eastern kind in the freezer

Hey TomTalker!
You are right its too early for deer, but you know thats ok its giving me time to practice my grunt call to call the little does
I do know one thing, by putting turkey season in the spring I dont think the MNR expects anybody to keep it till Thanksgiving as most would have eaten it aready. Assuming they got one (just saw a non-breaded one myself last season)

Hehe! Here's a 22lb'r with 1 11/16" spur on one leg and the other broke off. LOL be still chewing him next Thanksgiving
This one is only 20lbs when I shot him but likely went 24 earlier in the year. Spurs were 1 1/8 each.
I also shot a nice eat'n Jake that went 16lbs this year. He'll be saved for a special ocasion this Christmas at the farm where he was taken
