Sometimes a perfect shot results in a very unexpected result. As evidence, I offer this 20-second video that was posted earlier this month on YouTube by Corbin Green, who was hunting in northern Texas. The tom nearly completes a triple backflip ... crazy!

I’m always amazed at how turkeys can flop and/or run when they’re “dead on their feet.” Although I’ve never had one with serious gymnastics skills like Green’s gobbler, I once killed a South Dakota turkey that nearly trashed my decoy after losing his head.
