Hey - it's not fair at all - here I am out in sunny CA working hard and the guys get to go turkey hunting!!!!

Good hunting and J you did a great job on the blood trail - lessons learned in Zimbabwe come in handy.

Can't wait to have a wild turkey dinner when I get home - be sure you guys are checking out the recipes.

Hee Hee Way to go Wingnutty.  Now ya know why turkey hunting is the exact reason I am a string walking bow hunter.  Ya need to put that arrow in a smallish orange sized target at what ever distance ya shot him at.  

If there were ever two guys that would stay on a trail till either they were skeletons or the query was skeletons it is mike and jason.  'em boyz will find it  

Turkey hunting can be addicting....and it will make a real good shot out of ya

Thanks for the kind words guys.  Yep Rusty, it's hard to give up on a wounded animal that you have any chance of recovering.  We went back to last blood three times and circled out to pick up the trail.  I finally paid off.  We learned from the best in the world in Zimbabwa watching the trackers follow Jason's Wildabeest and recover it nearly 2 miles on the GPS.
