Took the wife hunting in hopes of getting her on her first buck. All she said last week was she wanted a turkey. Well as luck would have it after the Saturday morning hunt we went to gather fire wood and jumped a group of gobblers. After about 20 mins of stalking, she got within 80 yds but only had a standing shot. BOOM, the group went right and left, but one went straight away and down. After a quick climb, and trying to get her another shot in the other birds, we found hers laying on top of the hill. She was ecstatic.

Great job, got exactly what she wanted.
Thank You Robert

Congrats to her! That's still on my wish list.
