Well took my brother again yesterday mornin after an unsucessful morning takin my mother out saturday. Roosted one bird sat night so that was the only tom we had within workin distance. Woke up LATE yesterday at 5:15 cuz we were out till 1am shootin fish sat night. Woke Kevin up and said lets go we are late. Left the house in 10 min and made it to the farm at 5:45. The tom started gobblin when we were half way to the blind. Got set up and started callin. He answered almost every time. Waited till fly down time and did a series of 4 excited cuttin yelp sequences and he answered everytime. Then I shut up and didnt say a word. Told my brother to draw his bow once and was still gettin set up in the blind. Looked out the window and did a call and he landed on the edge of the field 200 yds and was puttin his feathers away and shakin off the nights rain. Called again and he let one out. Started walkin towards us fannin out and and got about 1/3 of the way to us and then he realized our jake decoy was on top of our hen and he was comin hot n' heavy all out runnin. Half strutted the last 15 yards and told him to draw. Bird came to full strutt next to the jake and Kevin hit him good. Threw the blind of and said go get him. The bird started half flyin and runnin across the field. One wing and one leg was messed up so he couldn't fly. We finally caught him abotu 150-200 yards across the field and he died shortly after from blood loss. Was a great hunt and shot him at 6:12. Got it on film and first bird with the bow for my almost 15 year old brother and firstkill with his outback since he got it a week ago friday. 21 lbs 8.25" beard, 7/8" spurs.He owes me big thisyear, haha.O well my season will be the first weekend of may so hopefully I canput one down too.... Nice job Germ. WCL
