Upper Peninsula of Michigan This early morning was terrible weather so we went out later. Lots of action and decided to drop this one. 9 inch beard and 1.25 inch spurs. 870 12 gauge. APEX GT-3 loads. Shot was 55 yards. I love turkey hunting. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/Gm0dZ6vp/30335-A25-3-D24-4665-9-A0-C-FC02-B092-CA88.jpg)

I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

Really I should say condolences. Sumbitches been beating my arse here in pa. Only second day, but starting to feel like I won't fill a tag. It's rough when a bird with a brain the size of a grape is smarter than me...
