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]
