Me and this bird got history. This year and last he just ignored any attempt I made to call him. Same thing happened this morning so about 12 I took a nap. About 5 I heard him gobble and clucked at him a few times and this time he hammered. Gobbled the whole way in.
21.4lbs
10in beard
1 in spurs

Just a factory full choke and winchester #4 supreme turkey loads. Knocked home stone cold dead at 35 yards.
Not my biggest but I wanted him bad.
 
Also this is the first bird I called with a pot style call. Only ever used mouth calls in the past.
