If you are a sportsman who believes bigger is better, I can’t fault you. I feel the same way, but I learned a valuable lesson during the New York spring turkey hunting season 20 years ago that showed me that a bird shouldn’t be memorable simply by the length of its spurs or beard. When I think of the turkeys with which I reached my two-tom limit that spring, I measure them by the excitement they provided me on those hunts. As you prepare for the upcoming turkey season, you might be interested in my experiences 20 years ago.

In my 74 years of life, much of which time has been spent in the outdoors of the Empire State, I have observed many species of wildlife. One species that I have not yet come across in the wild is the legendary Sasquatch, or Bigfoot.
Al Santariga, of LaGrange, in Dutchess County, however, claims to have seen a Sasquatch several times.
