Yep Wack,remember it well!The first turkey hunt i went on was with my father I believe in 1978!We had no clue as to what were doing.We went out about 8:00 am walked down a road a bit and heard a bird gobble!He was way off but we didn' t no better so we just hid off the side of the road gave a few yelps on the old OLT box call we had and nothing happened!After about 20 minutes of not seeing or hearing anything we left!In 1979 after talking to a few folks about huntin turks I took to the field with a little more exuburence and the first morning actually saw my first real longbeard in a hunting situation!I must of yelped a 1000 times on that old box and went through a box of chalk!

A week later I killed my first tom and its been a learning experience with countless memories ever since!I was so proud of that first bird that I brought it in the house cut the fan and 3 1/2 inch beard off and layed it in my dads easy chair for him to see when he got off work!!

I' m pretty sure this is the pic!!Man I' ve lost hair and gotten fatter[
