Cay, he weighed in at 23 pounds...

Semi...I had 7 different gobblers going at it yesterday morning and had time to work two before the hens took them away...I moved to a green field at 7:30 and had 7 jakes within 20 yards by 8:00...I heard gobblers until about 8:30...I slipped out at 10 and returned at 2 thinking that maybe one or two would have left their hen they had in the morning and try to find another for the evening...

Well, for once that's exactly what happen...I set two hen decoys up in the field and sat back in a green beach chair, gave a few yelps and took a little nap...About 2:45 I hear a faint gobble...I gave a few yelps and relaxed again...At 3:15 or so I sent out a series of yelps and was cut off...Two birds come into the field about 5 minutes later with a gobbler with a 8 inch beard in the lead...

The big bird never gobbled...They made a bee line for my hens and when they got to within 35 yards the big one went into a strut...I yelped quietly and he stuck his head up and I popped him...

I had a heck of a time running the other bird from the field...I would mouth gobble and he would gobble back...

rt...That's actually a Browning B-80, made about 1982 if I remember correctly...I bought it from my younger brother in the late 80s for $200...It came with a 26 and 28 inch 3 inch mag barrel...With a Hastings .640 choke it is deadly...The gun fits me extremely well and I use it for deer, turkeys, squirrels, doves, ducks, whatever by just changing barrels and chokes...

It's a little unusual to see a turkey gun that's not all camo but I have never really had a problem spooking birds...I think it's really all about the set up that you put yourself in...
