Colton Stroud age 8 of Puxico killed this 23 pound gobbler for his first turkey. 

Colton bagged his bird on Saturday during the opening of Missouri’s Spring Youth Turkey season with his family friend, Thomas Espey (pictured below) as his guide. 

Colton is the son of Dusty and Julie Stroud. 

Colton has a pretty proud grandpa in Lennis Stroud that loves showing off the pics of this successful hunt at the gym this week.

Congratulations Colton!!
