Default 1929 Parker Trojan 20ga gets it done in Missouri.

Finally got out over the weekend in North Central Mo for a little turkey hunt at my place. Saturday morning was incredibly windy with 30+ mph wind gusts. I figgured my small clover plot which is in a protected part of my property would be a good place to setup. Did not hear a single gobble all morning, but eventually caught a gobbler moving through the woods about 100 yds behind me. I hunt with Poor Valley slate calls that were made by a very fine gentleman who passed away last year, Jerry French. A let out a few yelps, but he didn't hear them so upped the volume a bit. He raised his head and came rigth in on a string....

Was able to capture pics of him coming in from a game cam I had on the plot.

One shot from my 1929 Parker Trojan 20ga F/F hammered him. Was using #7.5 Pheasant loads as that was all I had on hand. Fun hunt, and one I will remember for a long time. Nice to add another chapter to this guns history.
