A Kid's First....(Willow Creek Taxidermy)
« on: January 22, 2012, 08:05:31 AM »
A proud Dad and his young son who just got his first hunting license brought in his very first Turkey on his very first hunting trip.  A 23 Pound Tom.  The look on Dads face and watching his son fill out the paper work and tell me about his hunt was priceless!  We incorporated his tag and his shotgun shell in the base with the bird.  Sorry for the poor pictures........John

Thanks everybody.  It's sure rewarding to see the kid's smile and axcitement when they bring a bird in, especially their first.  What happens everytime without fail though, is the parents are usually smiling and excited more than their kids :).........John

Very nice. If I have time this year will stop and check out your place John. If luck is on my side might have a bird for you to do for me.

Charlie, you going to shoot an Eastern in your yard?
