My dad and I took my 8 year old and 6 year old hunting for deer and turkey. Unfortunately, this is the first time in at least 5 years we haven't seen any deer in the morning. Not even a mule deer doe. Must be some kind of conspiracy. However, the big boy got his third turkey and the first for this year. Here are a few pics.
Here are the two predators when we first woke them up.
After the shot. Can you see the turkey?
There it is.
One happy kid.
A little closer.
Picking it up.
It's almost as big as he is. Probably 20 pounds live weight.
My 6 year old wanted to get in on the action.
Carrying it back to a spot with shorter grass so we can take some more pics.
The predator, his weapon, and his prey.
Hamming it up a little.
That smile is what it's all about.
We are going back in a day or so to let these boys finish filling our freezer with venison.
