Doubled up this morning!
« on: May 10, 2011, 09:26:42 AM »
This morning started like most others. Got my kid on the school bus, then came back to the house. I looked out my front window and seen a coyote trotting across the hill. Quickly retrieved and loaded my rifle. One shot at about 330 yards and he was down. :IBCOOL: I went to confirm the kill and ran into a group of turkeys. Back to the house to exchange rifle for shotgun. I put the sneak on them and got a good 20 yard shot at the tom. Finally put one down. Nice bird too. 9 1/2 inch beard. Boy I love my place.

You lucky SOB.  Now if you had caught a fish and trapped a beaver that would have been a story. J/K. Congrats man, that is very cool. Good for you and what a way to start off the day.

Great picture! Weather looks great also. What area are you in. Can't wait to get to my cabin and do the same on the 20th.

That is an awesome story.  Sometimes they just fall into your lap and it makes a cool story.  Great job!
