Default Re: Fall Rio Grande Turkey

In Texas, each county has its own rules. My deer lease has no fall season, but the hog spot I hunt (which is where I was) has a fall either sex turkey season.

No, I won't mount him, though I will put his tail, beards and spurs on a plaque next to the Eastern turkey I shot in Nebraska with the bow. I messed up when I lived there and didn't make sure I had a Merriams turkey fan on the wall too. We did bring this one back to camp in the bag well of the EZ-Go. He looked pretty bedraggled then as it was raining. Even funnier, I shot a very small spike buck yesterday morning and sat him in the bag well with a bag strap around his neck. I should have taken a picture of that for you. I was getting some grief for shooting a dog sized deer, 82 lbs live weight, and didn't think about the camera until later.
