First strutters of the year

(1/3) > >>

BowEd:
The first pair of strutters were by this morning.Heard them gobbling earlier.It's a very fuzzy pic I know but my camera is'nt too good I guess zooming in.Rather chilly out.Around 5 above F. outside this morning.The turkeys are around 70 to 80 yards from the house.I'l be trying to get a shot at these sometime in April with a self bow and dogwood.

Guess it's kind of a fore going feeling that spring is just around the corner when I see this.

I had a few worked up on my camera.  The one on the left has a thick beard.  I'm not much of a turkey hunter.  I might try to see if I can get one this year.  I heard one gobbling in mid December not far from the house.

BowEd:
Nice trail camera pics.I've head them gobble even in november too,but usually it is'nt until closer to spring that they start staging in plain site around here.

PEARL DRUMS:
Clint If you had some bbq or teriyaki turkey jerky made you would want to kill one every spring. Its the only way I eat them anymore. They are nothing like domestics as far as eating quality. Ill try to get one before Marshall so I can bring jerky with me.

osage outlaw:
Sounds good Pearly.  I'll give it a try.   I have killed 2.  One was a bearded hen that made the mistake of walking through the yard during turkey season.  The other one was killed with a work truck at the plant on Christmas day.  I cut the breast out and made shake and bake tenders for the guys at work.  Fresh turkey was a nice holiday lunch.
