My Son's First Turkey

Postby elkmtngear » 03 27, 2013 •  [Post 1]

My Son William got his first bird on Sunday...9 inch beard and a single one inch hook on the right leg. A nice, heavy Rio! So proud of him, he was a happy boy! :D

Very cool. Congrats to your son on his first gobbler (and the supporting cast). Great video of the day (and editing) also.
