huntinsonovagun Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #29 Well guys...I got one down, but our team name jinxed us!!! I shot the beard off my bird. Was a dominant (strutting) longbeard (8-10") but I somehow shot it off or it broke when he fell. Ended up being 6", 3/4" spurs, and 22 lbs. I have the video to prove that he was longer, but there's not telling how much longer he really was. Way to pick a team name guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

need2hunt Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #29 Well this was going to be the post where I tell you guys that I'm heading to Missouri for the opener on Monday. But it's not going to be. I've been looking for a new job and got a call on Friday about a possible job and have an interview Monday morning. Actually got 2 calls on Friday and there's a second job that I'll be looking into also. Right now I need a job more than I need a turkey so that's where my priority is. I'll still end up getting down to Missouri just won't be on the opener. I'll let you know when I know more of what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need2hunt Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 Re: Realtree Turkey Team #29 As you can see I've changed my avatar from... to... Had the job interview this morning that went well all in all. So now it's time to pack up the van and head to Missouri for a couple days of hunting. I'll let you know how it goes when I get back Thursday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
