Title: Truly blessed with an opening morning BOSS
Post by: 3seasons on March 15, 2014, 11:55:21 AM
Got this ol boy at 7:44 this morning. Truly a blessing.  New land first time hunting it.
Drummed all the way into 20yds and I couldn't take it any more. Never gobbled just strutted
And drummed.  Pretty cool way to start off the season. I'm loving my little 20ga I built.
23lbs
12 1/8" beard
Just over 1 3/8" spurs. Can't find my 1/16" tape
Truly blessed

Wow, you killed that big bird with a little 20 gauge? You know that you shouldn't be able to do that. Good for you that no one told that to Andre the Giant there in the picture.  :happy0064: :happy0064:

Congratulations!

Congradulations... that's one heck of a bird!!!

Not to be off topic, but is there a thread about your gun?  I'm curious to know what stock you put on it... looks to be an 870 20ga?  I'm wanting to put together a light weight 20ga with iron sites for runnin and gunnin
