My eight year old gets his 3rd turkey - 56k? LOL

[Bitmap]

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.

More pics in the next post.

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.

You've got a couple of cool kids there.
I can't wait for grand kids so I can do that

Camo, what camo?

They were wearing Dad's and Grandpa's extra jackets. In one pic you can see the younger one still wearing what looks like a camo trench coat.
