Went out this morning and had birds gobbling everywhere....nothing would commit. Going back out tomorrow.

Got a good workout this morning. According to an app on my phone, I walked 9.12 miles up and down hills and hollers. Ended well, though! Got a jake! Some folks think it's silly to take jakes, but if it walks in like a man, it's gonna die like a man in my book! This one about got around behind me before I could get a shot, but lifted his head enough just in time to get the shot off. 36 yards, 17.6 lbs, 4.0" beard, 0.5" spurs on both sides.



Your score is 17.375 + 5 + 5 + 8 = 35.375

For some reason my picture ain't showing up...you can go to my profile and see it. Album is called "an album with pictures"...clever, I know.

I reckon that one worked...big bird for a jake...sounded like a longbeard too.

Hey Bible!
Nice job. It sounds like you had a great hunt. That's what it's all about. I'll bet every bit of that 9 miles was worth it after the smoke cleared and your bird was down.

It certainly was worth it! And this evening, when I am eating some fried turkey nuggets, it'll be even more worth it!

I have accumulated a large pile of Jake beards thru the years.
They eat so well.
I’ll be out in a week, its about time.
JW and Joe those are awesome birds, congrats to everyone so far.

Well I filled my two Kansas tags, I will get pics and details up tomorrow. One bird was a 23 lb'er and the other was a 20 lb'er.
