Default Here Comes Da Judge!

I harvested my 5th Tom using my Taurus Judge 45/410 loaded with Apex Ninja 9.5 TSS Tungsten.
We shot these birds at 12 yards both at rhe same time. It was my 3rd double with my partner of 38 yrs.



A pair of 2 year olds taken in the Michigan's upper pennisula.

It was an awesome hunt!

Trukies with a .410 gauge hand gun is an accomplishment, taking two at the same time is the icing on the cake.

Hey thanks all. With close to 40 yrs turkey hunting together we figure we need to stay together for safety reasons.
I know his wife likes that idea.
And im trying to talk him into using a xbow and we.guollotine a bird together!

I know how to place my decoys to keep them close.

And we are both looking at trying get a rail added to our revolvers so we can add a red dot..
We did try to film
We both failed at that.
