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 first turkey

Well I finally got my first turkey this morning. He worked the decoy perfectly and gave me a great shot with my buddy Josh calling him in.

weight: 21 lbs.
beard: 10 in.
Right spur: 1 1/8 in.
Left spur: 1 1/4 in.

Here are a few pics. I'll add more later.
