Va success
Got one Tuesday morning right off the roost. Ended up crisis g a knee deep creek to get him. Not much of a story but he was gobbling good on the roost and I got close as I could. He flew down a d I gave one Yelp and picked up the gun. He came right to 20yds when I shot. He rolled down into the creek. Biggest bird I have ever got, he weighed 23lbs, had 10 in beard, and 1.25 spurs

Nice gobbler! Like the spurs. Congrats. Guess he decided he needed a bath before he went to turkey heaven!

“Son, Turkey HUNTING starts at 40yds and in. If you can kill him farther that’s all you’re doing- KILLING. Make him think he’s answering you, call him up, kill him closer-Man! Now that’s what it’s meant to be…” Johnnie Keel ( an Old Pro most never know)
