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 Second Tom of the year down

Went to Wellington Kansas to visit Racks and Quacks and had a good and fast hunt.. Seen lots of birds after this one was shot and they were certainly more vocal than the easterns around here.. wow!! This is my second bird of the year and while he's only a 2 year old it's a Rio Grande so now I'm 2 for 4 species and have the other two booked for next year..

Took only a couple hours and we called him in from probably over 400 yds.. Could have shot a double but I was too cheap to buy the second tag.. lol ooops..

16lbs, 1 inch and a 3/4 inch spur and a 8-3/4 inch beard..
