First Ever Turkey Today!


Recommended Posts

Pretty pleased with myself. Not the most conventional way to hunt a Turkey, but I guess you do what you know best! I stalked it for about an hour and a half keeping the wind in my face, then used a tree between me and him before sneaking up Ninja style! I showed myself, it looked at me, I see a beard and boom. Was a pretty crappy shot to be honest, looked like only one BB got him, but right in the brain! 

The Turkey was 15lbs in weight, beared was 9 inches long!  I processed it at home as it was cool enough today to drive back home, kept the spurs, beared and fan and will have those mounted as its my first!

Very happy chappy!

Congratulations. I'll always remember my first one. Called it in myself and had to commando crawl about another 20 yards, keeping cover between me and the bird,.

Hah yeah, I lost my knife as I was doing the same between the horse paddock fences. Heart was pounding. Not felt like that since I hunted in the UK. What a great feeling !
