Free-range low fence Texas Emu.  Didn't see a turkey today but I did connect with this guy.  Bisch says emu is nasty....my other buddy says when fried it tastes like chicken.  We'll see.  

62" Toelke Whip 50@28
Full length GT 3555, standard insert, Magnus feathers, and 175 grain Woodmans
10 yard shot, no pass through, dropped where it was shot.
Ground hunting, ghillie jacket.

Congrats again, Bill!

I still say those legs would make one heck of a nice back scratcher!

And you should have emptied a can of bright yellow krylon on him before you took the pic!    :laughing:    :laughing:    :laughing:

Congrats on the bird!

Cool trophy.  A buddy of mine once had them.  I had no problem with the taste.  Red meat......looked like a ribeye steak.

Kill one more and you could make a sweet coffee table out of the legs!!  Congrats, great job.  That's the first time I have ever heard of emu hunting.
