RARE Wild Turkey Taken in KY!

I have a few more pix I may post later . . . need to take the beard and spurs out of the "critter freezer" and measure them.

Great hunt !

The extra effort you go to setting up your photos makes them very appealing..  Well done.

[Bonebuster]

Here's a few more pix, including one last photo I took before wading the creek I have to cross each morning. You can see the cattle path I used on part of the stalk.  It allowed me to slip quietly below the level of the adjoining field where the birds were.  Once I was close to them I climbed up the bank and set up in a stand of river cane until the gobbler walked by following the bearded hen. Probably a 2-3 yr old bird.

Very nice, Congrats Gary!!

Things have really slowed down around here. The hens are on the nest, or hanging close to them, and the gobblers are scattered about . . . very unresponsive to calls and ignoring decoys.  I saw several longbeards combing freshly plowed fields this morning traveling solo.  May try an ambush strategy along the fields edges. Only three more days left in the season. Our early spring has made turkey hunting extra tough this year!

The battle continues!

Nice work, that is why we keep hunting.  For the few moments it works out perfectly!

[Mike Vines]

Very impressive.  That's a well earned trophy right there.
