turkeydude Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hey everyone! On my season on May 7th, I punched my tag on a monster gobbler. He was 24 lbs 12 inch paintbrush beard and 1 5/8 inch spurs!!!! The very same turkey eluded me three times last year and i had a lot of close calls with him. For some reason he roosted in the exact same tree every night and i got underneath the tree that afternoon and waited for his arrival. Sure enough right at roost time here he came. He came from where i was not expected and spooked when i turned around but i still got off a quick shot and downed the bird. This is my best turkey yet. http://s662.photobucket.com/albums/uu348/Dannypics91/?action=view¤t=DANNYDANNYDANNYDANNYDANNYDANNYDANNY.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
