According to the NWTF website:
The Grand Slam is the most popular of the NWTF’s recognized wild turkey slams.
To achieve a Grand Slam, a hunter must harvest and register the four most common subspecies of wild turkey, the Eastern, Rio Grande, Merriam’s and Osceola (Florida) turkeys.
According to the NWTF website:
The US Super Slam is considered the most difficult of the slams. A hunter must harvest and register a turkey from all 49 states with established turkey hunting seasons. This includes all the states within the Lower 48 as well as Hawaii. Alaska does not have a legal hunting season for turkeys.
After harvesting a tremendous Merriam’s from Arizona in 2015, Jeff Budz became only the 4th person in documented history to complete the US Super Slam.
