May 23, 2009 at 2:49 pm #52027Happy Birthday and congrats. How many birds is that this year???
May 23, 2009 at 5:43 pm #52024ok after a little fri afternoon scouting we found a place to set up with in shooting distance of the “spot” in the “bull pen” after numerous days of battle with the 3 toms that rule the bull pen we put it together today snuck in early and wow were we surrounded not alot of gobbling but the hens were unreal yelping clucking cackling purring it was crazy hind sight being 20-20 i should have grabbed the covert and set it up but we went for it blindless bad move when your surrounded by turkeys and they are coming from all directions and we have a small rise 30 yards in front of us i am embarrassed by how many times i got busted these hens were mad at me for being in there spot anyhow after many close encounters a lone tom and a hen came down the hill from behind us just over the crest and gobbled at less than 20 yards only to have the hen putt and move away (i may have moved) with him following as im trying to turn to get him the mrs says i see tails turn around so i slowly turn my head “PUTT” busted again they come out of strut and try to sneak away but not so fast they are inside of 45 yards i raise my gun heads come up i pick one bam game over then turkeys scatter everywhere what crazy morning we were covered up with turkeys from the get go so after we packed up we went and got the covert and will be back in the am as the mrs is still carrying a tag there was 3000 still available but i passsed now will there be no turkeys or if i got the boss will the ones left be going crazy i cant wait to find out
weight 20.8
beard 9 15/16
spurs 1 inch
Your score is 20.5 + 10 + 10 + 19.875 = 60.375this year i got 3 toms and a jake and ate my 5th season tag so im doing my part to up the 20% sucess rate
after the hunt the mrs and i went to the mushroom “spot” she whipped me bad as she filled a shopping bag and i found 6
the streak stays alive 2 years in a row ive connected on my b-day think its a sunday next year then ill have to go out of state for when its on mon or tues
