Home Forums Birds & Dogs Turkey Hunting No Flop Drop

Hey scottishkat...here's some pics of the 2016 bird that came from 8 or 10 miles away from our new spot. He weighed 22 on the same scales but looks like there's more difference than that. Not the "hog head" as you call it and not nearly so black. Was really excited none the less. Typical paranoid mountain gobbler. Gobbled once right at pink sky and once on the ground. Took about an hour and a half to come 400 yards to me without a sound and knew exactly where I was sitting. Soft yelps and clucks twice only. He turned a little early at 48 long steps. Plain old Winchester 2 1/4oz #5 10 gauge. If you have any pics to show I'd like to see how they look up Virginia way. I'm already looking forward to next year.
