Turkeys plentiful in the wild

I wrapped up the month-long bow season without releasing an arrow at a whitetail. I had plenty of opportunities at younger bucks and smaller doe, but my goal was to put venison in the freezer. I was targeting a mature animal packing lots of venison. Each year, I try to take a deer as early in the season as possible so that there will be plenty of venison to prepare at upcoming hunting camps.
Turkeys might be in short supply at the grocery store, but there are plenty of them roaming the woods and fields across much of Texas. Luke harvested this young gobbler with an arrow last week on the Dale River Ranch. PHOTO BY LUKE CLAYTON
