Default Most memorable hunt

What was your most memorable hunt. All are memorable but I still have one thats the best. Again I was in Missouri and my wife decided she was going with me to film. Well the morning started off terrible with rain and gusty winds. You couldnt hear anything. Heck my decoy even got blew around that it was pointing with the head looking straight up. Kinda funny looking hehehe. Im an agressive caller anyway and that day I just opened up as loud as I could. Well after watching a couple hens for about 2 hours I spot movement and here he comes. We are in a ground blind as well. I tell the wife here he comes but she cant get focused, so I tell her dont worry about it and not to move. Once he got 15 yards away he got it hard. So I get out of the blind and go to get him and low and behold off flys a turkey. Now Im bummin. Little did I know I was so focused on the one turkey that another was with him and thats the bird that flew off. I was releived that it wasnt my turkey I shot. My wife did get that all on tape though. But that was my biggest bird to date. It was 25lbs double beard 11 and 8in. Spurs were 1.25 each. I was glad my wife got to be with me when I shot this bird. She got to witness turkey hunting from the worst conditions to the best end result. My second most memorable hunt happened last year when my buddy filmed me killing one on tape and yes it was in Missouri but thats a different story.
