Turkey with Grandson
Troupe figuring out how to retrieve dead gobbler from prickly pear patch:
These turkey filled woods border the course of the Clear Fork of the Brazos River and provide cover for deer and hogs too. There were three separate roosts within 200 yards and dozens of turkey, but they dispersed at sunup and only left the woods after 8 AM. First some hens and then this gobbler that was "looking for love in all the wrong places". One shot from the Orion 12 (sorry, but he started on an O/U and has not yet become a Parker shooter) and he was down and full of cactus spines.
Picture time back at lodge with proud grandpaw:
