Gobbler Nation

It happened to be the first bird i killed on my own. Got him home and breasted him out, only to find a six inch stick lodged and healed over in his breast. He was on the lighter side, im sure he wasnt too spunky carrying that around.

Yes sir only 1, porb 20 years ago. About 2" stuck in the breast meat.

Yes, but not close to six inches

How bout a stick with a turkey in it.

Dang!

Bear bait

Just one under the wing. Wasn't that long. He didn't act hurt

It has happened to me as well. It was a small twig in the breast and I even killed a deer with a stick it's inner ham.

Too bad he died, we all could use a few more "dumb" turkeys in the gene pool lol

I did kill one with a small stick in his breast.

Yes years ago. About 4" long and in a liquid sac in the breast.

This bird gobbled himself to death. Didn't need to call, he came right up the trail gobbling.

dang red, some mean birds in your area. never found one that's been lynched. I have, however, killed a gobbler with a stick in it. this wound had grown over with a large, flakey, puss filled growth. only turkey that ive thrown away. I wouldn't have given it to my worst enemy.

I killed a Adult Gobbler a few years ago and we cooked it for Thanksgiving, as I carved it I seen a Black spot that I thought was a feather draw. It was a stick the. Size of a pencil about 2" long all healed up. Had to hurt when he first did it I would think.
