Title: Tagged out in Ky
Post by: Roost Wrecker on April 25, 2011, 01:14:45 PM
Just tagged out this morning in ky. I bought some magnum blends saturday and shot the first one through a jelly head in my 835 this morning. Almost took the birds head off at 20 yds. I watched him fighting saturday and set up this morning at the edge of a grass field. He come straight to B mobile. Took a shot and dropped him, my biggest bird. 1 1/8 spurs 21 lb and 9 1/4 beard.  :thanks: Lord

thats awesome man. the only part of the gobbler i could see is the part of the head i shot off. i was hunting a private farm in livingston county, ky, and its really hilly terrain. the gobbler and his buddy poked their heads just far enough over the ridge where it dropped off and i slammed him dead. it was crazy
