Deer and a Turkey Walk Across Range While Shooting
Thats right, another reason I love Tiadaghton Sportsmen Association, just got done shooting the AK and was loading the drums for the .22 when I look up and see a doe walking across the 300 yard line. This was about 5 minutes after my last shot with the AK and I never imagined any animal would even be within a mile. I managed to grab the camera and snap a shot right before she disappeared.
Then, a little later while shootin' the .22 at 200yds a turkey just strolls RIGHT INTO MY SCOPE'S FIELD OF VIEW!!!!! I couldn't believe it, so I grab the camera again, then think "oh he's gonna see me move" but he was still there so I look at the camera again to turn it on then look back and the turkey was gone...
Later, as I turn to start packing up I see a bunch of deer back off to the side of the club house just outside the treeline. I managed to walk up to them about another 50 yards until they trotted off, snapping pics the whole time. Unfortunately most of the pictures are blurry but you'll see the one good pic of the 4-point in velvet.
Pretty interesting to see all that wildlife, especially right in the middle of my shooting session. Too bad they aren't that bold when they're in season..

Re: Deer and a Turkey Walk Across Range While Shooting
Even with turkey being in season, I have no hunting license, had nothing but semi-autos, and it was Sunday... but when that MFer just strolled right in front of my target like Gobbles from Southpark.. I'd be a liar if I said the thought didn't cross my mind for a split second.
