Hey guys,took the wife and kids,and I went to Osceola county this weekend to 3 lakes wma.There was a ton of people.I had a good friend take me into his spot and turn me loose.(I told him he let the fox into the chicken house..lol)First day I had a close encounter,and also encountered 11 hunters.Man it was crazy...people set up every 200yds.2nd day I wanted to take any bearded bird.I saw one at 8am,he had not responded to my callin(maybe it was the 40mph winds)so I went into stealth mode.Anyways 15 minutes later I got my first ever osceola.
Opening day is saturday here in ga.I'm gonna help my friend who is an army ranger get his first bird if I can.He is going over seas in a few weeks.Don't worry about me I'll get a mature bird.
I saw some birds struttin' on pay to hunt land down there.The sheriff had his 4x4 hid in the bushes just down the road from them.Here's a few pics from my trip.Check out all the campers in the background.
