Annual GA trip

Post by MKW »

Well, just got home from my annual turkey hunting trip back home to turkey hunt. The turkeys weren't quite "right", but still somewhat workable. I managed to kill one opening morning (Sat) and one this morning (Sun). I came on back home this afternoon because of the rain in the forecast. I can always go back after May 1 or after I fill my SC tags.
Saturday's bird was a run-of-the mill 2yr old with 1" spurs and an 8.5" beard that seemed to have rotted off on the end, but he weighed 22.9lbs. Sunday's bird was a better bird with a 10" beard and 1.25" spurs.
Now, I'm waiting on April 1st for SC(upper) to open!

I'd hate to see what you could do if they were "right". :)

Congrats on the birds!

Thanks, fellas.
By not "right", I mean that the turkeys, or most of them, were still in bachelor groups and weren't very eager to commit and come in.
