Default First turkey for me with my Parker

Took my first turkey with a Parker this morning. A DH 12 gauge, 32 in pipes choked full and full. Bird was shot at 44 paces using 2 and 3/4 in Remington, #5s. Bird dropped in his tracks. Should have seen this old man dancing!

Default Before shot

Pictures before the shot. My bird was busy keeping these two jakes from the hen. He should have paid more attention to the guy in the pop up tent.

Great bird You have to love hunting turkeys from blinds. They do not seem to see them at all. I have had birds walk feet away from my doghouse blind and never pay it any attention. Great hunt. We have to wait unitl May 3rd to start here in NH
