Got my first wild turkey today! At about 8:50 a.m. three of them were held up at about 100 yards out and to my left. huntmeister was able to call them in after about 30 minutes and I took the larger of the three at 35 yards using my Mossberg 835 ulti-mag with a red dot scope and Remington hevi-shot #6's. Weighed 20# and had a 5" beard.

Trying to get the pic. from the camera phone to come in better. huntmeister took the pic and it is a little distorted.

Way to go.

My hunt started this morning and instead of sitting in a blind with a sharp stick I had to be teaching a week long class.

First bird is always memorable....
