Killed my first Merriam's gobbler today. I've never heard so much gobbling in the evening. A few yelps and I had two gobblers double and triple gobbling and coming in fast. Barely had time to get my face mask on before I saw the first gobbler coming thru the junipers. The first two days of the season were windy, cold and snowy but today was beautiful!  ______________________ I don't shoot elk at 600 yards for the same reasons I don't shoot ducks on the water, or turkeys from their roosts.

Congrats DC! With such good populations of eastern turkey here in GA, I have never much considered making a trip out of state to hunt another species of turkey. But a merriam is one I really want! Congrats again!! 30+ years experience tells me that perfection hit at .264. Others are adequate but anything before or after is wishful thinking. | |||
