Well its been rough to say the least. Monday and Tuesday I didnt hear a single gobble. Today I was lucky enough to hear one at 5:30am and I booked it toward his roost. I worked him on and off until about 8:30 when I heard the last gobble of the day. I stayed until about 10:30 and he never made another peep. Going back in the morning, going to get a bit closer and set-up properly.(Today's rushed setup was a mess - too far away, a creek/spring between us...)

Supposed to rain tomorrow though. I'll let you all know. Ohhhh yeah, I almost got mauled by a bear today too.. YAYYYYY!

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Bring him home Fingerz. We could use a few more birds for the contest. Way to go Embry and Bandhunter. What about the rest of you guys. Haven't heard from some of you. Are all of you hunting? It's killing me not being out there chasing longbeards.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Turkeys are being lame as hell. That is all. It is only a matter of time before one gets blown away...

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

I had to get off post # 1666. Keep after 'em buck.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Went out tonight. Had them right where i wanted them. I knew they would be where they were because I saw them this morning. I had them coming in and some dork farmer on an atv checking fences effed it up for me. Yet again I get messed up by someone. ( you dont even wanna know how many times Ive been screwed up this season). [>:]Going back tomorow and the next day and the next and the next and the next

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

I hear ya buck.. I'm in the same situation.. I'll be out again and again until one hits the ground..

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Well, "hopefully by this time next week I'll have one on the ground as well" held true. I scored today at 9:55. A short story and a score will be up soon.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Okay, got the photos and the score. Too tired to feel like writing up a story right now.








2 year old I would suspect...

19lbs. 8 oz.
9.25" Beard
Both Spurs .75"

Your score is 19.5 + 7.5 + 7.5 + 18.5 = 53

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Congratulations on a nice bird!!

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Finally Rod emailed me the picture of my second bird taken on 5-2-09.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Good going Fingerz, very nice bird. It's about time you helped the team:D.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

my season ended yesterday so im done for the season... good luck to everyone who can still hunt!

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

I don't think they have our score correct according to the scores posted at the beginning of the thread.

Thanks.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Looks okay to me..? Can you clarify.. and then I'll double check...

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Anyone still hunting?

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

I killed a bird last night. Will post pics and story later, No time. Got my blind stolen two days earlier so this bird costs about $10/lb live weight. [:'(]
21.5 lbs. 1/2 inch spurs on both sides and 10.25 inch beard.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

They have changed since I posted earlier today. They didn't have my 2nd or your bird listed earlier.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Good going Buck. Only 1/2" spurs? Still a very good bird.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Must have been a 2 year old.. Very nice though.. once you post a photo and the official stats I'll get him entered...

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Hey fellas, I scored again. This guy came in silent right off the roost to check out the decoys. He flew right out into the opening I was set on the edge of. Flydown to shot was about 3 minutes. I've been after him for about three days, so it's nice to finally connect. I called him in for my brother on tuesday around 9am but wasnt given a shot opportunity, then on Wednesday I was in the same spot and called in four jakes. Meanwhile, this longbeard gobbled down over the hill about 100 yards and would not come up over. Today it worked out nice but without any gobbling it seemed a bit weird. Nonentheless, here he is.

18 pounds
1 1/8" spurs
8.5" Beard









I'll get him entered here soon..

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Good going fingerz. Turkey season is long gone for me, but I'm always thinking about it. I've been at the beach in Florida for the past several days. I love it down here, but I would rather be turkey hunting.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Thanks bud. My season is over now as well. It was definitely fun, but now I can sleep in some.

Just as an update, all birds to date have been entered. I'm not sure if anyone still has a season going or not, but if so good luck.

Also, the stickers are to be sent out this coming Thursday... This date has been changed numerous times by Arrow, but he plans to send them thursday, and when he does I'll send them to the guys who have given me an address to do so..

It's been great having you all as a team and if you havent noticed, we are currently FOURTH for overall score. Not too shabby.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

any news about the stickers... i read that they were sent to the captains and i was wondering if you were going to send them to us? thanks

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

I got them yesterday. I'm making them out as we speak...

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

As of now I only have txjourney, mossberg, trevor, centaur and bandhunter to send stickers to.

If you want a sticker you have to PM me with your address ASAP.

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Stickers were sent out yesterday... Hopefully they all find their way to your mailboxes.. If they arent received within a week let me know and I can see about sending out another..

RE: Team 3 Thread
 

Thanks Virgil, I'll keep an eye out for it. I appreciate everything that you've done this year. Thanks again....Mike

RE: Team 3 Thread
