Ain't buying it.

Why not?

Looked like a pretty wicked turn over to me.

P.S. Any dead turkeys? I was in your neighborhood for the opener, but no birds wanted to die.

Just looked like all the other elk in the video then cut to a big bull pic. Maybe I'm just cynical with internet stuff.

Yep, Just recalled I can zoom in and did so, I am buying it now.

Neil and I were up in Wilbur last week with turkeys and strutting Tom's but we were more messing with boats than birds. Next time you're in town or passing through let's meet up.

Tripped over fence and got stuck upside down in snow until a guy came buy and got him unstuck and upright but the bull must laid down and eventually died. He was allowed to keep the bull by fish and game.

Post by: Stein on April 25, 2018, 11:50:51 AM: I saw an antelope get tangled in a fence, the top two strands wrapped around the lower leg and the thing was kicking like a maniac. I tried to get in but there was no way of getting it out without lifting it up, getting kicked or cutting the fence. I didn't have wire cutters, wasn't interested in getting kicked or trespassing since it was a private fence on the border of public.
