Bump

 

[STTH]

One fell this morning to an old handicap feller for a minute I thought I had one too many decoys out all I put out was a single feeding hen, he came out and gobbles and strutted for her a couple times and then looked like he was going to bug out but he ran the wrong direction, towards me instead of away then while waiting for a friend to come load him for me I had to defend the bird against a couple of thieves one of them did not make it

This bird was coming to our decoys and started to fan out 3 times as he came in cautiously. He never fully did. He whipped a U turn at almost 50 or so yds out and started a quick waddle trot away. He stopped, looked back, and fell victim to a tungsten migraine. Face planted and never gained another foot forward on his escape. This not a tall tale, an exaggeration, or a blatant lie. The witnessed and verified truth is, that measured with rangefinder 7 or so times and stepped off, he was taken at "88 yds" with my Versa Max Sportsman Turkey, an Indian Creek Black Diamond choke tube, and a 12ga 3 in Browning TSS #7s/9s mix. The pic is where I dropped him and if you zoom in up hill behind me, you can see my blind (and the decoys 20 yds in front of it) sitting below a ladder box stand just 10 yds inside the pasture behind my uncle's log home. I had put 16 rounds of various loads @35 yds and 4 rounds @50 down range at Henges last Wednesday. I earned an ugly bruised shoulder and learned that my set up was solid for 50 if it had to be.

Patterning in at 50 yds and shooting at one at 88 is two different things. May not be a tale tale, exaggeration, or blatant lie but it is utterly foolish IMO.

Just hold high I would think

No way I would have changed hats from the original picture

**edit** unless I was sponsered

I also wonder why a person would spend the money and effort on the shoot house and blind. Hell, just sit in the garage. Much easier to use the crapper and grab a beer too.

If I had to shoot one at 88yrds, I guess I just wouldn’t shoot one. Kinda defeats the purpose, but to each their own. Congrats on the kill.
