We went out saturday mornin, and heard turkeys gobblin and got set up within 80 yds. of them, come to find out they werent interested in eatin they went the other way into the woods. So after about a couple hours tryin to figure out where they went we left and tried to find another spot, we went around this big field and theirs a road about 3/4 of a mile from where we were at and there they were on public ground. So we had to park our truck about 3/4 of a mile away and snuck out there and we were tryin to get to these other turkeys when we just see 2 big fans over the hill, i hurried and got set up, and my dad barely called twice and here he came a big tom, i didnt even care how big of a beard he had i just knew he was good from the size of him he came into about 25-30 yds and i let him have it. So i had my first turkey by 9:30, i can't wait till this next weekend it was so much fun. It had one 1 3/8 in. spur and the other was broken off. The spur was big enough my dad could hang the turkey off his finger with it, it had one 3 1/2 in beard and you could see the scar where another beard used to be, i dont know how to tell the age of the bird but he looked older. It was a great hunt. The photos are on this link.
