Default First gobbler..how did I do?

Well just started bow hunting and got to do some turkey hunting opening weekend last weekend. Unfortunetely I spent the whole week in the woods with my bow and could never get the gobblers to come close enough for a bow shot

So this Thursday headed up to the ranch for a 24 hours trip, despirate for my first turkey because I was already starting to notice them laying low and not being as active. So I grabbed my gun and sure enough got my shot at a turkey.

Check out the pictures and tell me what you think.

The beard measured 9.5 and the spurs werean inch.
