My Son and I went up to Black Kettle this weekend for the Oklahoma Youth Turkey weekend. We hunted hard all weekend and finally this nice gobbler and a jake came in on a string to the box call this morning at 7:20. My boy swung the Mossberg Bantam 20 gauge around out the back window of the blind and put the red dot scope on this bird and took him at 15 yards. He almost hyperventilated he was so happy when that turkey folded and I had tears in my eyes I was so happy and proud. One of the greatest days of my life to date!! Bird had a 10 inch beard and 1 inch spurs and weighed 18 pounds. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z348/LesLove3394/Hayden%20Turkey%202012/HaydensFirstTurkey.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z348/LesLove3394/Hayden%20Turkey%202012/HaydenandIwithhisfirstbird.jpg)

That there is what it's all about. congrats, and many more.
They say everything happens for a reason.
For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

WOW! That is just great. Congratulations to the hunter and his proud guide!
Faith and love of others knows no mileage nor bounds. That's simply the way it is.

I think you have a bigger smile than he does, congrats to both of you on a great bird.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....
