Sandhills Gobbler
« on: April 10, 2011, 02:00:00 PM »
Started in the Pine Hills of Nebraska and then moved to the Sandhills in Custer Co. before I got this guy. Had an 8" beard, one spur was 1.25" and the other was 1". Shot him out of a Primos blind with two DSD decoys with my trusty Widow and a Grizzlie head on a 2315 XX75.

Very nice....the Sandhills are some beautiful country.  I'd love to go turkey hunting up there....kill something besides an Eastern...not that there's anything wrong with an Eastern but I sure love the white tips on those Merriams.

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

BRAVO !

For us it's almost imposible to imagine a flying bird so big !!! that should be a hell of a hunt

Congratulations
