From the turkey pamphlet.
Turkey hunters must use #4 shot or smaller (e.g. #6 shot).
Just trying to inform.

I am a little disappointed in the story however, I was expecting something like the bird was rabid, and attacked you, one of his spurs got caught in the shoulder of your camo when he attempted to jump and spur you in the head, so you had to take him out with a branch.....lol

Nice job man, I don't think I've really ever heard of people shooting turkeys with steel shot.
I planned on using my bow, got busted several times drawing back. Missed one and decided to use the shotty on the last evening! Trust me the steel was highly effective. I swear by the remington hypersonics!!!

Great job :tup: Were you using a call or decoys?
I called alot, but also found it fun to just spot and stalk them when they gobble on their own.. It is truly a challenge to stalk one of them.. No decoys..

Come on guys...65 yd. jelly head shot ?? Never seen a bird with a head shot like that past 25 yds. He MUST have used a .243 and I think the WDFW should go confiscate the gun :chuckle: :chuckle: :yike:Buck Canyon for remedial sensitivity training :)
