I had a great season even though the birds were tough hunting.. It was a very remarkable year for me.. It surely was a season I will never forget about. As on one of my hunts I had 3 moose walk in and check out my decoys.. One of the things about it was it was a cow with 2 yearlings. That was something I have never seen in the spring during any of my hunting or fishing trips.. A cow and 2 calfs would not be out of the ordinary. Anyhow I shot my first tom on opening day and blew it on my second bird the very next day. That bird I have been trying to get for the last 2 years and then I blew it. I did get another decent tom during the third week of our season and tagged out. Now not one of these birds gobbled back and was tough getting them to come in.. But as always the main thing is to get out there and enjoy it.. Whether you scored or not. There is a lot of folks I am sure would love to have even part of a day to be able to get out there away from it all. Having a chance to score anything is only a bonus to enjoying the great outdoors.

On a side note I wrote a short story up about my turkey hunting and the moose that checked out my decoys for American Expedition and it will be getting put out in their October issue even though I am not much of a righter.. They loved my story..
