Wasn't long and he was on top of the ridge closing the distance. I could hear him spitting and drumming all they way down the ridge to the food plot. Thundering back everytime I hit my call. He took his last breath at 6:30. He just loved this 3 in copper call I made from Spaulted maple, I harvested not more than 100 yards from where he layed. One of my top 5 birds at 23 1/2 lbs, 11 in beard, and 1 1/8 spurs. Sorry for the blurry pic, but I was still shaking when I took it. Man I love turkey hunting!




Especially on your own farm
