I was blessed to be able to get a nize gobbler today after the rain stopped. 19 pounds, 10 inch beard, and 3/4 spurs. My first bird with my new Stevens single shot. I continue to be blessed.
Well done Buckman. You’ve been flirtin with them for the last few weeks. Now that the new gun is broke in there won’t be a turkey that’s safe. Great pics as well!
Thank you all for your kind words. It’s been a glorious season. I’ve had nine gobblers within shotgun range to date (if you include the one opening day I goofed on that I misjudged) in the 11 days I’ve hunted so far, but have had the oddest luck closing the deal! I was getting a bit anxious and frustrated, so it feels good to finally connect. Let the good times begin!
