Default Dream Come True

I’ve posted in here of my Parker VHE my wife bought me for my 50th birthday... well 20 years ago I shot ducks with this old gun...and now I can add turkey to the list! I can’t begin to describe the joy of putting the bead of my Parker 30 inch barrels in the sizzling white head of this strutting gobbler. 10” beard with 1” spurs. The vid flopped at 30 yards with a 1 1/4 oz Winchester Super X pheasant load. Somebody pinch me!

Congrats. I hope to do the same here in Southern IN when season opens with a VHE of my own. Looks like things are blossomed out there. What part of the country are you in ?

The azaleas in the background really do it for me - haven't seen flowers in these parts for nearly a year.

Great picture in ALL respects though!
