Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default Best picture with your trophy?

What do you guys think is the best pose with your downed Tom for a picture. Hopefully I will get my first this year. I have seen a lot of different poses with them. What do you think is the coolest?

This is something that a hunter needs to take time at and have a good eye to turn a photo into an experience of a life time. I see so many photo that seem to get turned when the back ground has the wrong scene. Home pictures seem the be the worst, with houses , fences, dogs, cats in the picture only takes away from the area you took your photo.

Being in the industry I have taken pictures in different ways and in different places so that I don't end up with a whole lot of pictures all the same and I have adventure in these photo's.

The back ground says it all here,


Folage lets you know where this hunt took place


Guess what time of year


This tree fell down when this gobbler was 45 yards out and we still got him


Here's an American and Canadian in Ontario


This was to stab at Mr Longbeard


A PA Gobbler


Ontario birds



Ohio pic with two buds


Ontario kill


Couple PA Birds


Commercial




Hope that give ya some ideas...

Great pictures! If you do not mind me asking, what choke and shot are you using in your Nova? Funny you should talk about background. We do most of our hunting on local public land so we try to never put too much background in our pics. Don`t want to give away too much. LOL

I'm very sorry to lean this thread off a little but its a good question.

I shoot the 20 gauge nova with a .570 Pure Gold and Hevi 13 #6

Your so right about giving to much away in a photo but most times it would be hard to tell where one is at. Even the Ontario pic's look alot like some of the States I've been in. A picture can show a lot but yet hide alot too...
