Turkey Hunting Whether it's spring or fall doesn't matter to this bunch. Great tips on calling, bustin flocks, using blinds and more.

Default My Best Bird Ever

I been huntin turkey over 30 yrs now and today I took my best bird ever.It was a 17 lb 2 yr old with 3/4" spurs and only a 7" thin beard.What made it so great is,My 15 yr old son Jake called it in.I had my mind made up at the first gobble that no matter,even if it was a 10 lb jake with a 1" beard it was goin down.He did a great job of callin.No matter what was gonna happen it was his bird to bring in or to lose.

congrats to you both...again dad and i used to pound some deer together...only had 1turkey kill in the 4 seasons i turkey hunted with him...funny thing was HE killed it he taught me everything i know...once i hit 16 i was on my own...brought home my first longbeard the very first time i went hunting alone. dad was more happy than i was. cant say dad didnt put birds on my lap...every year i COULD have killed atleast 1 bird...just never liked the shots or fired for that matter...
