Title: Flintlocked #2
Post by: adkmountainken on May 24, 2020, 11:14:31 AM
tagged out this morning using Fudd again, my club butt fowler. a nice, plump Jake. pretty much happened as we had planned kind of quiet in the morning then 3 gobblers started gobbling. talked to them for 30 minutes and coaxed 3 Jakes in to 5 yards. had to wait for a little separation then Fudd bellowed, the fire flew, smoke rolled and when it all cleared up there lay gobbler number 2 of the year! Mac's canary wood glass did it again! Mark Cornelius many thanks one hell of a call!

Congrats on your gobbler and nice job with the flinter, you could have singed his feathers off at that distance.

Congrats that's pretty awesome.  I would say that it's tough to find places that either have a high stump or fence post to rest that beast on. LOL

Now that's really going old school,  congratulations. How many yards can you shoot with that weapon?

this particular smoothbore is pretty limited 25 yards max prefer under 20. i do have others that are jugged choked and can reach out 30 yards.

Congratulations on you bird! It's probably been nearly 10 years ago that I took a nice gobbler with my 12 gauge jug choked fowler with the aid of a black five-gallon bucket dressed up like a strutter. Age has caused me to convert to a Remington 870 with a red dot.
