Killed Tom Today
First chance to go hunting this year and bagged this big boy. 22.5 lbs with a 9" beard. First turkey I've ever killed. Never hunted them much, but the sound of a big tom gobbling and watching him come strutting up sure is exciting. I think I've found my new favorite season.



From this pic, you can tell that I took him from the other side of the mountain. [:D]
