Title: Back from Fl/GA trip
Post by: appalachianstruttstopper on March 25, 2013, 12:49:52 PM
Well, we made it back to Virginia this morning from our FL/GA trip with snow on the ground. Gonna be kinda hard to get back used to the nasty cold after turkey hunting in 70 deg weather. I scored on an eastern in north Florida on our last morning with a nice double beard bird. 22# 1.0" spurs 9" beard with 5.5" secondary with a score of 71. I am waiting for the pics to be emailed to me so I can post them to the thread for the contest. This was a good first Florida bird for me, and sure had to work hard for him.

Yeah, don't know if he will use this footage, nothing really special about a 37yr old killing a turkey, but we video all of the turkey hunts we can in case they want to use them.
