Default My Son's 1st Bird!!!!!!

It sure was an amazing time in the woods with my son pulling the trigger on his first hunt! My son Graduated from Hunters Ed on the 4th and we were hunting on the next weekend, the 11th.

Well we hunter pretty hard the weekend during the Wisconsin Youth Hunt, scouted all day Friday and hunted from sun up until sundown both days with a lot of action, but no shot opportunities and some bad luck like geese flying over the flock that was headed our way and spooking them and flew off, that was a bummer! Also had 3 Toms fight right in front of the spot where we were sitting the evening before, couldn't believe that one! We did have fun over the two days, birds gobbling everywhere, watched them fly down off the roost, which was awesome! Had birds run into the decoy set up only to dart back out or hold up just out of range! Thats turkey hunting for ya!









You can see the Tom in full strut headed to the hens that were 30 yards to the left, just on the edge of the corn and grass!
