CarrieZ - Who's Slamming What Turkey Where???

You always hear about people achieving their "Turkey Slam", they got the Royal Slam or

World Slam or the Grand Slam.  But what exactly is the criteria for each of these slams I

wondered.

Navigating to the National Wild Turkey Federation website opened my eyes to a whole new

world of turkeys!

Grand Slam - Eastern, Rio Grande, Merriam's & Osceola

Royal Slam - Eastern, Rio Grande, Merriam's, Osceola & Gould's.

World Slam - Eastern, Rio Grande, Merriam's, Osceola, Gould's & the Ocellated Wild Turkey

Mexican Slam - Rio Grande, Gould's & the Ocellated Wild Turkey harvested

in Mexico.

Canadian Slam - Eastern & Merriam's taken in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, Alberta or British

Columbia

For each slam you finish you will receive a certificate from the National Wild Turkey

Federation, a record slam pin and your name is added to their record

books which can be viewed online.

I know that Nock1 is close to completing her Grand Slam, and under the "Top 5

Species to hunt" thread I Hunt 365 mentioned they only had a few to go too.

It would be interesting to know how many BowCasters out there have

completed any of the slams, are close to completing one

and which ones they are!

Even though it would be awesome to earn any of those pins I would never wear them. It would be giving my wife way to much ammo.
