Merriam Hunt in South Dakota
« on: May 07, 2010, 09:07:14 AM »
Just got home from an incredible week of Turkey hunting in South Dakota....One day it was 60 and the next it was snow and 32 gegrees with 40 MPH winds...but that didnt stop the Gobblers from responding. I shot 2 Gobblers BOTH with double beards and my buddy got 2 very nice Gobblers...All the birds had excellent spurs and averaged around 20 lbs..Great people..Incredible hunting and beautiful scenary....We are locked in again for next year...I turned 44 while i was there...What a great Birthday Present.....
