"Crackshot" Wendy

Post by martin08 »

The very fine and lovely woman in my life, Wendy, decided to take a hunter's safety course this year for her license. It paid off!

Her very first shot bagged a 13 lb jake-turkey. The little hen is mine from the same flock. We called them in from the center of the field to the woods line, and...


.... BAM! BAM!

Wendy's first turkey. Congrats girl!

Hi Longcolt 44,

This is Wendy. Thanks :) BTW, I don't require CCW class as I am prior Military, but a handgun would be nice.

I had five turkeys parade through the yard yesterday, I wasn't hungry and they were small birds compared to the ones above. They knew they were safe and didn't pay any attention to me.

She's plenty cute without the camo and gun. But to see her stalking those birds...

... I mean, HUBBA HUBBA!

I tried turkey pepperoni last night, oh man did that taste like crap. Fat or no fat content, pepperoni should be made with pig! Roasted turkey smothered with gravy is much better :)

Try making some turkey jerky; It's pretty good stuff!

Nice that your lady will hunt with you. I have a heck of a time getting SWMBO out shooting more than once a decade! :?
