Default RE: BBD (My First Turkey) w/Pics

Thanks T for posting it for me. I couldnt get it to work. Our birds have a fair amount of pressure. We have about 6 people in our club that hunt them on a regular basis, and there is no telling how many people hunt them on the next club. I talked to this guy for 3 1/2 hours before he came "lookin for love in all the wrong places". From what I hear and have seen, turkeys dont fly too much, usually from the roost, and back to it. I was really suprised that he flew over the swamp. DTC, the pic doesnt do his beard justice. Half of it is riding in my truck cause of hitting him in the chest (reminder to self to give that to the taxidermist). I think it was draggin when he was struttin. I had a hard time seeing him because there wasa little ridge between me and him, and he didnt top it until a split second before the hen saw me. I dont even remember feeling the gun go off and its a 3 1/2 mag. But anyways, thanks fellas.
