Well Team I must apologize for letting you guys down yesterday and my heart really aches for Matt and his Family, which we all agree is far above what happens with the contest. Never the less I took Matt into the woods with me yesterday and all I could think about was getting a bird for my Brother and Team Mate. About 1:00 I heard a faint gobble about 500 yards away and behind me, every time I would call a faint gobble. I got up and carefully moved toward the area were I heard the bird. Crawled the last 20 yards after seeing him in a corn field an awesome bird which would have scored in the high 60's. I watched him and called softly trying to get him closer because he was 45 yards or so away but he would not budge. I aimed took the shot and missed badly, never even knocked a feather off him. Turkeys sure can run fast and he was gone in a matter of seconds not to be seen again. This really hurts after missing one Saturday evening as well, I guessed the distance wrong and nicked one in the wing. I have hunted at least once a day every day since the season opened and I would be lying if I said I'm really down after working so hard to help the Team and win it for Matt. I will be out everyday until the season ends Sunday. Please if your a praying man ask GOD to help me get a bird not for myself but for the Team and Matt. By the way guys you are doing a great job! I hope you don't haft to carry me to the end like dead weight, I'll do better these last 5 days GOD helping me. My wife and I as well as many Christian friends are praying and hoping that Alison recovers without any negative consequences. Please keep us up to date on her condition.
