Titanium700 Report post Posted April 21, 2014 Saturday morning was a beautiful morning, birds gobbling everywhere and we were on our 2nd sit when it all came together for my son at 8:35, The 1st sitting had 3 gobblers all triangulating to our hideout when a car drove by in the dirt road scaring them. The second sit had us further back when I was able to reel in another 3 gobblers and I sweet talked them into 40yds when my son finally pulled the trigger. I wish I had it on video my son is 11yrs old and weighs around 95lbs and when he pulled the trigger all I saw was a bird hitting the deck and my sons feet flying over his head = I didn't think the 2 3/4" turkey load would be as harsh as my 3 1/2" shells for him but my my my. Lol Here he is with his first gobbler. 9 3/4" beard 1 1/8" spurs 21.5 lbs 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
