Default RE: TEAM #23 -"Full Strut"

Alright team, here's my entry: 20 lbs, both spurs 3/4" and a 9" beard. The NWTF calculator scored him at 53.

I filmed this guy on my digital camera on May 8...I chased him basically all week except for 1 day, so I was after him for a good 7 days. Well at 11:21am on May 15, this past Friday, after maneuvering on him for a couple hours, his hen leaving, then him leaving, I set back up and he basically did a loop around this small patch of woods and came down a hill in the field, saw my decoy, heard my little yelps...and at 30 yards the Mossberg 500 20ga Super Bantam with Federal Mag Shok #5s put him flat on his back.








I already had posted the photos and longer story in the main turkey room, but hre's for my team! Still have another tag, will try to get back out again...working on planting theg arden and studying for nursing state boards.

TG - use small case for the img thing and at the very end hit return - don't ask me why I just know it works - JW
