Somebody mention wet turkeys?  Ive been known to kill a few in bad weather.  I hate to mess up my hair though, but I make the sacrifice occasionally.

If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

That first one makes Reflex's I-70 gobbler look like the blue ribbon prize winner at the county fair

I figured Ronnie just waterboarded that gobbler to get him to tell him where the others were hiding.

Well it's a turkey buzzard

so if dead turkeys can vote, a T-buzzard should score

That was one of my Himalayan gobblers.   Found Himalayan on I85.

Took that one with my Grandfathers 1875 Remington and Son's 10 gauge double barrel. 
I'm the third generation to take game with it.  Dad and my Uncle Don were tickled to death.  They goose and pheasant hunted
with that gun when they were boys.  Not sure how they carried it.  It weighs a ton.  It's going in the safe for my
oldest nephew now.  It's his gun to take game with.

Thanks.  My Grandfather got that gun during the first depression.  Been in the family ever since.

West Augusta-great pic, love that shotgun and I think it’s great that you/your family are carrying on that tradition.

Now that’s cool.   I love pictures with some history involved.
