OPENING MORNING SUCESS!!!
Heres the story. I sat in the ground blind with bow in hand, ready to call one up as soon as the sun peaked above the horizon. I heard plenty of gobblers, but they were not coming to a call. About 9 I decided to do a little runnin' and gunnin' (I brought the shotgun along just incase this situation came about
) So I grabbed the 870 and left the bow behind. I knew where the group was so I walked as far as I could...then it turned to crawling on my hands and knees...then when I got some tall grass between me and the birds, it turned to belly crawling. I got within about 50 yards of them and gave a few light calls. I had 3 really nice toms walk up within 3 yards of me! But the camera wasn't in postion so I didnt shoot. They walked on by and this guy was bringin up the rear
And the best part...I got it all on film
He was barely over 21 pounds. 3/4" and 1" Spurs. And a 7 3/8 beard
Your score is 21.0625 + 7.5 + 10 + 14.75 = 53.3125
Im headin back out after lunch! Im gonna be behind the camera and It'll be my buddies turn this time.
