RE: Team 14 Thread
Well it finally happened. I got my first bird yesterday! Yeah, he's a jake and won't do a lot for our team score but I'm STOKED that I got him. He gobbled for over 2 hours before the shotgun got the last word. He weighed 14 lbs. Hopefully I'll be able to get a long beard before the season is out but we'll see. That was one of the most memorble, incredible hunts I've ever been on in my entire life!! I'm hooked!!!

Great hunt csgriz, I read your story before, didn't realize you were on my team! NC, WAY TO GO! Jake or not, Congrats on your first! I've still got 2 weeks to go before I can hit the woods. Just started scouting a little, found some potential areas in RI. I just scored a 123 acre piece of property in CT, nobody else turkey hunts there. The landowner said a neighbor moved in last year and shoots some, but he is NOT supposed to be hunting on this property. I got the impression that no permission might not stop this guy tho, so we'll see how that goes. I'm gonna go check out the property on Friday. Funny thing, the guy didn't want me to deer hunt there because of lack of access and he has a couple buddys that hunt there. He said there is no shortage of deer tho. He says he limits who can hunt there and turns down most people that ask. I told him I bowhunt only in CT, and won't be interested in gun hunting, he said well, thats a different story! He said only one other guy bowhunts there, and he hasn't been ina while. Score 2 for me! The other guy who bowhunts there and the landowner are like family....of sorts. The other bowhunter's daughter bred her dog and I have one of the puppies. The landowner has my dog's sister, lol.

Hey guys/gals/teammates, I experienced one of the most incredible days of turkey hunting in a long time yesterday. Started with my best friend, my youngest brother and I all with tags, ended with 3 longbeards down, including a double with my little brother. I wrote and incredibly long story and will post it on the main forum. Score another one for the team!
23 lbs 0 oz
1 1/2" left spur, 1 7/16" right spur
9 3/4" beard

Congrats to all on the team...I don't even get a chance to get out there until May 1st here in NY. I will be taking my niece out for youth season this weekend though. Hopefully she can connect on her first bird!!
