 We got to Charles Green Conservation Area on Friday night. After we got there we shot our guns at a turkey head target to see if we could get the right amount of pellets in the turkey head. Brian from MDC showed us how to identify hens, gobblers and jakes and he showed us a video on turkey hunting. We had pulled pork and baked beans with sticky pig bbq sauce. After that we talked for a few hours and then went to sleep.Entire Story
