Limbhanger comes home
« on: November 15, 2012, 08:38:34 AM »
This morning Mr. Big came to call.  This is our first Fall hunt ever in our unit.  It was by draw only.  Anyway, I've had my eye on this guy for a couple of weeks and luckily for me he used his same old trail off the roost.

I'd barely settled in when he came walking by.  For what may be the biggest turkey of my life, it was very anti-climatic. 

He has a 10" beard and 1-3/8" spurs.  I can't find my scale anywhere, so his weight will remain a mystery.

cool never really been able to hunt turkey always wanted and have kind of looked but not really hunted nice.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
