I got this bird on the opening morning of the spring season in VA. We were hunting one of the local military bases and found him with an owl hoot just before dawn. My buddy did the calling and I did the shooting. I guess you could call it a team effort. The shot was about 20 yards and the gobbler was flopping in the leaves when the season was less than 30 minutes old.
He was just a whisker under 20 lbs with an 11 inch beard and 1 1/2 inch spurs. This was my first spring gobbler. I've taken a couple with a rifle in the fall season while deer hunting (legal in my area) but this is the first one I've seen called in.
