The stuff is in there, BOY HAVE YOU GOT A SURPRISE WAITING!!
I parked out on the highway and walked in. Cause my trailer was loaded to the balls with maple.
As I got to the turn to your cabin, by that big group of pines, I flushed TWO hen turkeys!!
NO s**t!
We saw another as we started up 507 in the ditch eating beside the highway, and another today, north of Gooderham!
Good eating!

Sealing and Transporting
The holder of a licence who has killed a wild turkey shall:
a) Immediately after the kill and at the site of the kill attach
the game seal provided with the licence or licence tag to
the wild turkey in the manner indicated on the seal.
b) Keep the game seal attached to the wild turkey until it is
prepared for consumption.
c) Take the intact carcass of the bird (with or without entrails)
to a designated check station by no later than 12:00 noon
on the day following the day the wild turkey was harvested.
It is mandatory for hunters to take their wild turkey to an
MNR check station by no later than 12:00 noon the day
after the kill. For a list of check stations please visit the
ServiceOntario office in the area you plan to hunt or log
on to www.mnr.gov.on.ca/mnr/fwmenu.html.
 
I don't see mention of rifle there mommabear, best get that checked out.
On the other hand, unless you manage a head shot, a 30-30 will blow an awful big hole in a turkey.

Can't say fer sure yet, but I might get up there that weekend, if I do, I've got a spare shotgun.
 
Oh, crap! thats right! Okay, my rifle is for target practise only.

Dumbdawgs shotgun will be there ;)

Thankyou Bob! I hope you can get there. :)
