Yesterday we got home from town around one o'clock. Mom was out hanging up clothes on the line when she said she heard and saw some turkeys gobbling!! Me and Dad jumped in our camo,grabbed our guns,jumped in the Toyota and headed to where she saw them. I had my eyes peeled on the hillside when I saw them walking along! Dad pulled over and we got out. We squirted up the hill and got in position. Dad clucked at them,and they gobbled right back! I saw one through a cedar bush and I almost lost it!!! I asked Dad if I should shoot,but he said wait for a minute for him to come out in the open. I waited and out he came!! I let the Wingmaster roar!! Dad ran over the little rise and clucked at the other one. The turkey gobbled and Dad let 'im have it!! Two big ol' thunder chickens down within 30 seconds!! We high-fived and while the toms flapped it out,we cut out our tags and taped them on their legs. :)
Here's a picture of me and my bird.
Here's Dad and his bird.
Here I am packing mine out.
We got home and Mom and Nash were soooo happy for us!! Mom wanted a few pics of her with the birds. :)
Here they are.
Today I skinned and cut all the crap meat off of the fan,beard and legs and salted them so I can make wall mount out of it. :)
Thanks for readin'!!
