Tough Year So Far For Me

In case you are wondering why I have a hand full of tail feathers in the first picture, it's because I had to tackle the turkey and step on his head after the shot. There was a little brush in the way when I shot and I guess I didn't get quite enough shot in him to stone cold kill him. When I got up to him, his head was still up and he started flopping down the woods. I dove after him and fell a bit short and ended up getting his fan and yanking half of it out. The second time I full blown tackled him and rolled a time or two before I stomped on his head to finish him off. My boss told me that dive would have made Pete Rose proud!  If only I had been wearing the GoPro....

LOL. Way to get it done!

Thankfully he did not! Once I got a look at those things, I was thinking that would NOT have felt good! That longest one was freakin sharp!

Congrats on your two birds! Great job! I was going to comment that I never give another hunter crap for shooting legal game then I read your post about that second bird. So jealous from the east. Again great job Seth!
