Haha yeah neither me or my ugly bird are easy on the eyes! I took a buddy hunting at my place last Tuesday and he was able to MISS two dad gum birds at thirty yards.He has yet to kill one and it's killing him!I spotted a hen in a food plot and belly crawled us into position behind some tall grass. I lifted my head up and saw the top of a fan, we had a strutter! I didnt wanna stick my head up too far so I was unaware that there were TWO gobblers in the field competing for that hen's heart. After laying on our belly for 15 minutes or so the hen walked by in the clear at about 20 yards, followed by the two gobblers. He had his gun up and I just knew he was gonna get his first bird. But when two longbeards walked by, I was so mad that I didnt have my gun up when he shot. He missed the first one, and before I could get my gun up to shoot he pumped another shell in and missed the second one.........to say the least, I was upset for him, but it was one of the most fun hunts I've ever been on. Getting within 30 yards of 3 turkeys in a field with only a strip of tall grass for cover, what a RUSH!
