Sorry to hear that Tim. It's hard enough to lose one you like, even harder for one that has done so well in the timber and in the breeding pen like Turk has.

My deepest sympathies Tim I will miss reading about him!!! Guess when you put things off like me getting out to the bunkhouse hunt we miss opportunities to have at least seen John II in person.
I am certain he has a son or 2 to carry on for you. Did you have much semen stored?
Ill give you a call the breed for sure lost one that did his part to help the cause.

So sorry for your loss. Turk will be missed not only in your life but in the Bluetick breed. We all lost a Performance sire.
I had to go out and look at ole Smoke and Robin and yep ole Turk lives on buddy..Not just in them but in all his pups. Turk left his mark.....
