GREAT STUFF !!!!

It's a good feeling to know that..........even though my first bird was about 5 years before Realtree or Mossy Oak...........some folks' were before color photography.    ;D

Makes me feel young-ISH.    :toothy12:
PA elitist since 1979

The good Lord ain't made a gobbler I can't kill.  I just gotta be there at the right time.....  on the day he wants to die.

I didn't get into Turkey hunting till late, we really didn't have a good Turkey population when I first got into hunting. This is my first from 2008.

;D  Yep.   I'm still about that same age in my mind, especially when I'm turkey hunting.

Thanks, it is actually the sons ladder to his deer stand, but it worked well. Wish my friend that took the picture of me and the turkey would not have cut off the turkeys head.

I'll have to dig through some pictures at mom and dads to try and find my first from 2004. Did manage to find this picture of my wife's (girlfriend at the time) from 2017. She hasn't gone a year without killing at least one since and actually hunted by herself a couple times last year when I was working

Second gobbler, but no picture of the first one from 1969. 
Lots of good times since, but boy how time flies by!
