Massive Turkey I shot in the bush!

If you read on further, you will learn about my accident with the bullets on the motorway, and the court prosecution that followed. Well, only days before leaving for my trip back to home to PNG, I had to go to court and face the music! At the end of the day, I was discharged without conviction, and didn't even have to pay court costs.

Still feeling like I don't trust myself, I took the advice of a good friend who told me to 'get back on the horse'.

So I took my rifle into the bush on a friend's farm and stalked a family of wild Turkeys for about 45 minutes, finally positioning myself in their path, and waited for them to come to me!

This is the result, a massive male Turkey that weighed in at over 4.5kg's!

That's my car keys, pocket knife and alarm remote on its wing, to give you an idea of how large it was.
