Keep at it Car. Tough hunting in the wind.

If any of you guys are on Facebook, you can view a couple minutes of my turkey hunt on my homepage. Check it out, I shot some video of him pushing hens around about two hours before they disbursed to their nests. You can recognize my tom by his stunted passenger side fan feathers. He looked about 5 pounds heavier than his buddy. See if you think so per the video.

Nothing so far, unless you count the 3 jakes I've passed on twice. The weather hasn't been the greatest but, I'm getting close!

Its been an interesting season for me so far. I had 6 LongBeards within 80 yards of me Opening Morning. Got 1 of em into about 40 yds, but couldn't get any of em out of the brush. Then, last Thursday I had a MONSTER LongBeard roosted 60 yds from my blind. But he flew down opposite of me, and skirted around at about 100 yds. Ive seen that bird before, 10+ beard, & I would go as far as to say, that bird weighs 30 Lbs! Definitely the biggest bird I've ever seen! So, I've moved my blind. And I think I've got a good shot at him. I'm gonna try my hand at it in the morning. Hopefully, I can bear good results!
