Shot my first turkey

[P38 Pilot]

Im not trying to brag or anything, but I shot my first turkey yesterday.

I just want to show the pics and possibly the video.

Hey, good for you!
Decent sized bird by the look of it too. I wouldn't really know though, I've never hunted turkey.

Boy, those are some serious duds you're wearing. Expecting to ambush some Navy SEALs?

 

[P38 Pilot]

Thanks NS! It started getting hot so I took off some of the other camo I had on.

Don't plan on ambushing Navy Seals; just invading Armidillos!

Hmmm

 

[cheddar cheese]

Nice, what gun did you use, .22?

 

[Nonskimmer]

More likely a shotgun. Probably 10 or 12 gauge.

Good going P38.

Show us some pictures of the turkey dinner.

 

[Maestro]

Damm... That turkey is almost bigger than you !

 

[Gnomey]

Yep. Good on you P-38.

 

[P38 Pilot]

Thanks guys! I used a 12-gauge take him out when he walked toward our decoy. He was less than 10 yards away!

 

[syscom3]

12 gauge at 10 meters...... youre lucky there was anything left of him! hehehehehhe

Save us a leg or two m8

Nice shooting

 

[loomaluftwaffe]

nice one... too bad i don't get a gun or a turkey to shoot

That should make for some good eating there, -38.

 

[elmilitaro]

Now I'm hungry.

As a fellow turkey hunter, congratulations -38.... That Tom is a pretty good size... Decent looking spurs too...

How long was his beard, and how much did he weigh???? I have taken a few species of turkey....

BTW guys, a 12 gauge with 00 buckshot at 10 yards would not be a mess, and u aim for the turkeys head anyways....

Don't hunt much, but that info can be useful if I'm ever craving a juicy turkey. *Drooling*

 

[Glider]

At ten yards you might stand half a chance of beating it to death

 

[elmilitaro]

ROFL. True.

Dont get too excited, cause large wild turkeys are not like the Butterball Turkeys u get for the Holidays at the local grocery store.... They are very rough and gamey tasting, and if not cooked properly, taste rather like heated shit....
