Title: my turkey season so far
Post by: BigB on April 27, 2008, 08:21:07 PM


I've been out in the turkey woods the past few days.  Here are some photo's and video of the season so far.

A few birds on the roost on the first day

I about got in trouble with this guy.  He was mad I was there!

And the big ole guy.  I wish I had a better pic, because his beard was about touching the branch he was standing on as he was strutting there.

with video of him on the roost.  He gobbled his head off for about 30 minutes before he flew down.  But unfortunately, he didn't come my way after he landed.  Dang hens led him in the opposite direction. :madd:

But it is hard to hunt turkeys when you spot this in your binoculars. :shck: :holdon:  :huh: :biggrin:

Great pictures.  It must be nice having that many turkeys around.  That looks like some really good coyote calling areas too.
