Well its been a long season and its not over yet.But south zone is closed now and I got a chance to try my vh out on a turkey.Birds started out red hot this morning like it was March 5th(opener)all over again.There was at least 4 gobblers in ear shot and all were gobbling.Hens were vocal also and jakes were running around like it was spring break.
Anyhow one then 2 gobblers entered my corner of the pasture and it was 30 mins of sweet talk and whispers.Then finally what I've been waiting for all season.The vh 12ga barked and down went the gobbler.I used a 2 3/4 high brass #6 pheasant load with 1oz of lead.
Patterned them a couple of weeks ago and was very impressed with the patterns at 30 yds.
So bird got to 30yds and the parker let him have it.I think I have a new turkey.gun.
Good luck to all
