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 2 days in MA... 2 Wet Toms.

All tagged out the first 2 days here in MA. Very nasty weather. Pouring rain both days. Took a nice 21.5 lb, 7/8" & 1" spur, 9.5" beard. Score this AM. Very rainsoaked. Never made a sound. Walked into me @ 7am this morning.

Opening day Tom 17.5 lb, 1/2" spurs, 8" beard. He is very wet too! Couldn't get a gobble after birds came down off of the roost. Walked up on he and 2 others right at noon as they were coming out to the field to feed. Right place right time

Congratulations, that is absolutely amazing. I live in California now butwas born in Pittsfield and grew up in Lenox in the 50's and 60's and you would have had as much chance of seeing bigfoot in the woods as a turkey back then. Maybe I should move back to the Berkshires.
