Nice bird springspur!!! congrats.

Sounds like I need to come to Louisiana for a Eastern lol. Good job. Looks like I'll give it a shot Saturday morning. Gotta a 3 hr drive to get there. I'm sure I'll see more hunters than turkeys though since its opening weekend lol

I know a lot of Team 3 will be in the woods in the morning. I hope all have a good safe hunt. Congratulations to all that have tagged birds already, I'll be hunting the bombing range in the morning, I hunted the state prison farm this morning but no joy.

Finally got to go out again this evening and this time it paid off, even through all the wind.

Got a nice bird at the bombing range(Poinsette Electronic Combat Range) Called him into 80 yards with my box call and he was gobbling and strutting but looking the wrong way. A few soft yelps with my mouth call and he saw the decoy spread and came in on a string, he stopped at 20 yards and went into full strut. As soon as a had a shot I dropped him because i had a feeling he was about to beat the snot out of my jake decoy, it started out as a tom decoy but I put a jake fan on it and shortened the beard and stake so he would look smaller. 17.5 pounds, 9.5 beard, and 1 inch spurs. A little bigger than my first bird.

Awesome bird Mrs. Mahan, Team 3 is racking up the birds.

We got it on video so I'll try to upload that soon. Congrats to you too! Looks like we both had a little luck today. There was a group of jakes at the feeder and a single hen when the tom came running in from across the road. There were more with him but they were still about 300 yds. out. We did a little more calling after that but they weren't gonna have it, so we called it a day. I have a feeling my brother will be going out tomorrow.

Congrats on the birds springspur and Mrs. Mahan. Springspur, I scored your bird at 56.5

Congratulations to our members with great birds !!
