Finally with two days left in the season, this fellow came in.
He was 22 1/2 lbs. with a 9 inch beard and a bit over 3/8inch spurs. Head shot over decoys at 14 yards.
The particulars were; Twenty ga. Flintlock trade gun, 65 grains of 2F Goex, 1/8” card wad, ¼” cushion wad. 1 1/4oz of a mixture of 6’s and 7 ½’s, .030” over shot wad.
To be honest, with two days left, I thought I was going to be skunked this year. I was looking for anything with a beard and he came by about 6:30 in the evening.
Sometimes the Turkey gods smile.
Now let's see if the picture posts. :grin:
