Well I did not sit the middle of the field this morning as I had planned- it got too light out and with no gobbles I went for broke and went to where I last heard them gobble early last Thursday.

AND I was correct - had a hen in @ 5:35 to 5:47 and @ 5:56 Am whacked a nice double beard 26 lb 6 oz - spurs 15/16 and 1" - is a 3 yr old or better!

And I saw a bigger one!

Although very very windy - really a good morning - wish I had a second tag for this season but will be back out next week!
3 hrs there - 2 hr wait for it to get light - 40 minutes or so work out - then had the rest of the day to find a place to live in the summer -and home by 3:44 PM

Am turkey tired!
