Two Turkey's (of the wrong species)
« on: April 21, 2011, 08:51:00 PM »
Well our weather finally broke for one day I think and had a beautiful morning in the blind. These two "Turkey's" weren't sure what to make of me and my two plastic friends.

:goldtooth:   You called those two in a few month's early.I sure was glad to see a nice day.It looks like you took full advantage of it.
A friend and I went out this morning also.We called in 9 jakes.He managed to get 3 shots,with no harm done to the turkeys.This guy is a darn good shot.The turkeys just wipped him.We did have a good laugh about it though.Even better we have it all on video.I was teasing him,and told him "I dont know about your shooting,but your a darn good reloader".   :biglaugh:   He would,and has done the same for me on more than one occasion.

Looks like they couldn't decide which was more out of place, the blind or those turkeys that don't move or make noise?

They look like they been pulled through a knot hole backwards when they are shedding those winter coats don't they?

I've actually had does get so close to me during turkey season I could just about spit on em. Too bad they aren't that friendly during bow season.

Cool pics.

Funny  :)
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

What was interesting is the little doe was very wary. The little button really didn't seem to mind a bit.

Maybe you should put the blind up come fall with the dekes and hunt outa that fallin down shed as a blind!  :)  :)

Critters are so much fun to watch... neat!

Doc, I've killed two does and a turkey out of that building before it fell down. Can't get into it much anymore though. Skeered I'll lean on something and be wearing it.
