That really is a nice bird. I love to turkey hunt, but forgot to apply for a spring license this year. Plus where I hunt, the farm was sold to some family that want it as a "hobby farm for their horses." I can't blame my friend for selling. What they were willing to pay him, he bought a new farm with a new house on it.
I never hunted with a camouflage turkey gun in my life. I killed more turkey with my 12 gauge $110.00 Westfield (Savage brand new bought in 1977) double barrel with Remington #4 three inch Nitro Mags then I care to count. Plain old wood on it, and nothing fancy, just a bead front sight. But be careful you don't hit both triggers or it will set you down on the ground real fast. I had two tags one year and was going to pull a double Tom. Had two nice Toms at the decoys, and I figured I could shoot the first, then swing on the second. So I put a finger on each trigger. Hit the front trigger, and the kick caused me to hit the back trigger and that's when I went over backward on the little stool. I got the first one at least.
