Chasing turkeys in sw mn is a lot like antelope hunting. A lot of glassing and stalking through short grass with the occasional tree to hide behind.

Congratulations on a nice bird. How are you going to cook it? It's hard to go wrong with smoking or deep frying!

Nice bird congrats!!

Thanks guys. Probably will smoke him but I do like them deep fried as well. I've been chasing these dang birds for too many years without connecting so it's nice to finally get one.

Congrats on your first bird. I have managed to only shoot 2 in 10 years with limited time and low bird population but it sure is fun.
