Title: trees dont eat like gobblers !!!!
Post by: jmck on April 26, 2010, 12:38:58 PM
Some of you have heard about my attempted TRICK SHOT last week. I kinda said something here about Porter and Daryl missing out west and took a shot at them----my how carma bites !!!!!
I worked a bird in sight of me almost 45 minutes to get him up close enough in the hardwoods to hammer him. Heck---ya know its so easy to shoot these things I figured I would make it interesting and a little more challenging.
I decided I would bounch my shot off a tree and kill the bird the same. ONE...TWO...THREE....BANG----somehow I must have figured the angle wrong. The bird wasn't even touched and ran off like he had seen a devil or something.
  If ya'll believe this story---I have a bridge over a desert for sale.
A true trophy tree----haven't cooked it yet to find out if its as good as fried turkey :'(

Jeff your tree was much larger than mine.  Not much was left of mine :(  

I know one thing, I'll never pick on Daryl for missing again...  Karma does suck!  

Good shooting!  You put the smack down on the tree!!
