Title: You Northern turkey hunters
Post by: dublelung on March 20, 2018, 02:19:16 PM
Sure got it made just being able to walk around and stay focused on turkeys without having to worry about stepping on or sitting on one of these. I thought this one was a limb when approaching from the side. Fortunately, I figured it out before getting too close. I gave him all the room he/she wanted and circled wide.

Looks like a bigun. I hunted Missouri a few years ago and almost sat on a copperhead. Needless to say, I couldn't go to the bathroom for a while  :OGturkeyhead:

Amen to that just take a bath in tomato soup instead spending a month in the hospital fighting for your life.
