    Default Got a turkey Sunday

    I called this turkey into about 25yards for my best friends stepdad he shot it with my 12gauge Encore ... first blood with it too... this turkey weighed 28lbs had a 10.5 inch beard and 1 1/8 and 1 1/4 spurs.

    It was his first turkey ever ... we got him a chance at some last year but he missed ... not bad for second time out hunting turkeys and he bags a nice turkey like this one.

    It was kinda funny cause he was shakin so bad even 15 mins after wards ... it was great and I was happy to do it ... it was the most fun to have that turkey gobble just over the ridge at 30 yards ... its too bad he got curious and came the extra 5 yards ... NOT... what a blast I had for sure ... he is still talking about it today ... tell me hes not excited ...as he should be.
