12yo Nabs his first. A Wild "Piebald" Turkey

This article from Outdoor Life magazine is about my cousins friends kid who shot his first gobbler. This is no ordinary NJ turkey. They are trying to get Cabelas to buy it now. Check it out! http://www.outdoorlife.com/blogs/strut-zone/2014/04/white-gobbler-kids-first-bird-piebald

She might be right.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Palm_(turkey)

 

I don't think I would've shot that bird,let it live and breed,but to each their own. I do find it kind of pathetic that they are trying to sell it to Cabelas though.

Yeah- I think the attempt to sell may have been for bragging rights. To have an animal on display in such a high traffic location. Not sure I agree with that though pattern but to each his own. It sure does look like a Palm. I didn't know about those and I guess you learn something new everyday.
