Went out tonight with a Friend of mine on his property.We were walking along and kicked up some turkeys To make a long story short a big Tom flew into the side of my buddies new poll barn.We didn't see it but heard it from about 100 yards away.
Wile he went inside to push the dent out I tracked the bird and found him.About 25 to 30 pounds.I still can't belive that happened.

Pretty cool story! Hope the game warden don't read it though!
 

I hope that doesn't go to waste.

Nice find Kev! lol we had a bird hit our window the other day but thank god it wasnt a turkey lol :thumbsup:
 

All of that testosterone running about makes them birds so stupid ;D
 

What a dumb turkey...get it?...turkey? Oh nevermind.

Seriously though I'm glad you weren't hurt. They can do some damage if they hit a windshield. I ran over one while motorcycle riding and darn near killed myself.
 

Oh yeah good eats there, I love cooking wild turkey
 

Check the ground where you found the turkey....

Tom might know something.
 

Nice lookin bird,.....yummy!

I'll be right over with the cranberry sauce........................nice......."catch".................. :thumbsup:
 

Holy crap.....That was a Remington detector? :dontknow: Looks like it does a good job on the pinpointing! :icon_jokercolor:
 

I will refrain from any comments about the turkey being polish since ya live in Bronson lol

I haven't read anything in the hunting regulations that says you cant use a pole barn to hunt
with.

You can hunt with pole barns, but hardly anyone does it anymore. We used to hunt deer with Chevy pickups in Oklahoma, and would manage to get one or two a year when we least expected it. I just hope he wasn't in a state where you have to have a tag to have certain game in your possession or the game warden is real picky about seasons. It's still a funny story, probably not to the turkey though.
 

You never know what you'll find while MDing!! Cool find!!

Thanks, everone that replied.Just to let you all know we had the turkey for supper and he was Delicious.I think you can get a ticket for no tag but I didn't want him to go to waste.HH
