Hunted a turkey contest with my cousin this morning. It was slow and we didn't hear any gobble at daylight. We finally struck a bird at 9, and he worked in but hung up at 80yds or so.....think the woods were a little to open and he wasn't seeing what he wanted. He hung around and put on a show but we couldn't seal the deal on him. He finally started to work away and another bird started answering us. I wasn't sure if he was going to work or not due to a thicker stand of timber between us. Turns out he was lonlier than we thought, and after about 30min of the silent treatment he was staring down the business end of a 3-1/2" world of hurt at about 35yds.... My cousin took the shot and connected on a good bird! 1" and 1-1/16 Spurs. scored in at 60 and some change.
Going to hunt my place in the morning to see if I can get another one.
