Looks like a classic spring turkey thread—always good to see folks getting out and sharing their hunts. That early morning setup and birds gobbling right at fly-down is about as good as it gets. Sounds like a textbook hunt, especially working them in close and making the shot count at 20 yards.

Also interesting to hear how different areas are doing—some guys mentioning lower bird numbers, while others are still having solid seasons. That seems pretty consistent with what a lot of hunters are seeing lately.

Congrats to everyone posting birds. Always enjoy reading these stories—beats sitting at work wishing you were in the woods.

Awesome job Coosa!

Looking back at the past 50 seasons, I don't recall ever killing a turkey while sitting at work behind a desk. Gil

It’s not so much the lack of hunting as the lack of picture taking. I’m starting to get the feeling the birds are mocking me.

That’s an interesting piece. It is great to see people talking about and appreciating these. Older guns or made guns have a certain charm. When you learn about their history and how they were used they seem more special. You have an example there. If you can please share details or your experience, with it at the range. I would love to hear how it performs not how it looks or what people say about it.
