Dead Turkey Pictures

[jblackburn]

Don't know about you all, but I'm itching to get out and chase some birds!  In the mean time, lets share some successes of the past.

1998 - first turkey in MO



2009 - MO - best bird to date, 25 lbs, 1 1/4 spurs, 12.5 inch beard



2012 - Oklahoma - First bird called in/killed on film



2013 - Kansas - one of my best Rios, just under 20 lbs, 1 1/4 spurs, 9 inch beard



2013 - Kansas - One of the best hunting trips I have ever been on.  These are all the guys from Gooserbat and we had a great time in mid-May!

The obsession began in 1984.



First gobbler on video. 1990.



Over the years I've killed more than I can count. In my early days I didn't take many photos which I regret but as I age, it seems I take more and more pictures.

A couple of Eastern Montana Merriams from 2002

Thanks guys. I've killed 4 gobblers with 1 1/2"+ spurs in my lifetime.

Best bird a couple of yrs ago in MS. 1&1/4 and 1&3/8 spurs as I remember. Hunted him for several days before finally getting the upper hand.

Love seeing the pics, gets the ol fire buring in me (its almost to forest fire level by this point already!) lol.  Gotta share a few of my own, just nothing like those ol longbeards and making memories! 

Double gobblers one great morning in 2010


Blonde set of hooks on one of these gobblers


Another good bird in 2010


What a morning! Fog on the mountain!


Couple pics of my VA double beard from 2012. Awesome hunt with a good brother in Christ and my dad, and got it all on film! Will never forget that!!





Ol soggy morning rain gobbler I called in and filmed my buddy Rob shoot in 2012 on my WV farm.




Huge gobbler I called in and filmed my buddy Nathan shoot last spring (2013), his first gobbler ever. Will never forget this hunt!




My 2013 Tom. Last day, last hour of season, was very blessed to punch my tag on a beautiful bird! Thank you Lord for the memories!!
