OSU Turkey

sharpshott · 04-29-2008, 10:48 AM

Had my friend jake come down over the weekend to do a little turkey hunting. After two months of hard scouting it was awesome to see some of it pay off! He got this bird on saturday afternoon after breaking it off a group and getting it to thirty yards before he let him have it. Were heading to eastern oregon this weekend with our dads to see if we can get into some bigger birds. Im pretty sure he was hooked after hearing our first gobble but if that didnt do it than getting this bird deffinatly did!

Nice bird,

Any anti-hunters come by sackett while you were taking those pics? I always get wierd looks when I talk about hunting around there.

About 6 years ago I was cleaning critters on the grass behind Sackett as well. Sweet pic it's always nice to see camo or waders on campus.

Nice bird. Go Beavs! When I was at OSU I live out by Crescent Valley High School one year....used to have turkeys in the front yard all the time.

deadelk · 04-29-2008, 04:36 PM

great tom. good luck east

beavermike -
Actually I had two people come up and talk to us asking what we used and commenting on how they didnt realize how big they were...haha...there were some people that didnt really want to see it but no one seemed upset or disgusted.

osulogger -
No we hunted some private land and in some other forests but not around Dunn, I didn't know there were many birds up there, sounds like I have some more scouting to do!

Go Beavs!

Isn't Sacket a gals dorm? You guys are one step ahead!

There were no turkeys around Corvallis way back when...

Can you post a picture of a limit of DUCKS on the tailgate next (particularly quarterbacks, recievers and defensive backs)?

Congrats!

sharpshott · 04-29-2008, 09:43 PM

sliverpicker · 04-30-2008, 04:40 AM

Nice work on the jake lad, congrats!

Wreckless · 04-30-2008, 07:30 AM

GREAT JOB JAKE!!!!!!

Good luck on the east side.

When you get back let's go BASS FISHIN'!!!!!!!

BTW - Way to impress the chicks in the neighboring dorm!! I wish there would have been Turkeys down that way when I was down there, but that was so long ago, they didn't have COMPUTERS!!!!!

GO BEAVS!

A jake for the Jakester, niiiiiice.Way to live up to the name.

Rusty Psoadman · 04-30-2008, 10:09 PM

Nice. I never managed to connect with a bird (got very close) when chasing them down by Alpine and on the McDonald Forest (with Forestry department permit).

Congrats...nice work.

The ucks don't shoot near as many birds as Beavers do, I'm sure of it.
