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 Finally tagged out in Ohio

After getting bird #1 the first week, the second and third weeks were tough for me. I went out today and heard 8-10 different birds and boy did they gobble. After working one hard gobbling bird getting carried off by hens, I decided to re-position and get out in front of them. While re-position I bumped into 4 more silent gobblers on a logging road. 3 of the 4 knew something wasn't right, but the 4th bird was just a little too curious. 18lbs 10" beard 1" spurs. It's not exactly how I like to get them, but it's a bird in hand. Below are pics of my first and second gobbler in order.
