I’ve got like 1 million miles driving ,and I’m telling u I said ‘this is it” yet here I are !! And after it was all done I stopped and looked behind me so many elk I couldn’t see the freeway .. for real lol one hour into my trip 3am not one hit on my truck or trailer ,my first swerve as I said this is it I thought making contact at that point yet elk did a butt flip from there I know swerved to more times all’s I could see is elk just braced the wheel at that point for impact.. but some GOD STEPPED IN ...

    I had a friend with a similar experience except cows, rain and St. Johns Arizona . He quit afterwards. The odd thing about my turkey was the timing , 4:30 in the afternoon on Thanksgiving Day:)

    I have turkeys in my yard on occasion, but I have deer every day. They have gotten used to me being there shooting my SS. One day I was practicing with my crossbow and they were milling around my target. I yelled and they did not move (there were about 10 deer). I went in and got my SS and shot one in the hind quarters. They moved so I could continue practicing.
