Title: Tagged out in Tennessee.
Post by: CDCorder on April 14, 2012, 02:16:38 PM
After another slow morning, I moved to another farm and finally got on this bird about 11:30 today. Caught him out strutting on a ridgetop and slipped in and coaxed him to me. I shot him right next to a fallen tree top and he flopped into all those limbs. When he was done flopping and I got him out of there, he came out looking half plucked.  *lol*

He weighed 22 pounds, had an 11.25" beard and 1" spurs.

That concluded my Tennessee season. Ready to hunt Kentucky next week and Oklahoma in a couple of weeks.

Clint

Brent, my dad asked me the same thing.  *lol* I honestly have never seen a bird lose so many feathers. He was flopping pretty good in that tree top and feathers were going everywhere. I could have stuffed a pillow with it all. I hated it because he was a beautiful bird and the pictures are all jacked up.
