Ok, heres my first Ohio turkey. I've shot them in PA before, but never as the one calling them in. Since this was my first try at calling myself I wanted to take the first legal one I could. I called for about a minute, and heard them fly down off the roost. Saw three coming in and they came all the way in to my decoy. WHen I shot this one he started flopping, so I jumped up to catch him and ripped almost all of his tail feathers out in the chase but, lesson learned don't try to catch them by the tail. I was really excited and had been sitting in the woods in my spot a grand total of 18 minutes when I shot. I'll be looking for a better bird now in both OH and PA and will be carrying a 10gauge I picked up as well.

Alright, Ya'll tell me if I did this score correctly.... And if not, feel free to tell me what I need to do. First time scoring a turkey I believe.
