RE: team 19 check in
Well i got back yesterday from guiding on the youth hunt. It was so much fun and i got it all on film.
The young man i was with shot his bird yesterday20 minutes after opening light!
His birdwas 24.3lbs, 10 1/2 beard, and 1 in spurs!!!!
It was his first hunt ever and he made a great shot on the bird at 25 yards.We watched the birdfly down into our feild and then i called himin from about 200 yards.IT took about 20min for that bird to get within range!
I will be out guiding my bro this weekend.
Best of luck and great birds so far guys!!!

RE: team 19 check in
I am sure getting anxious for the following days. I am getting my black bear back from the taxidermist on Saturday and dropping my osceola and rio fans off. Then one Monday it is the opener for MO. I got up and listend this morning and the birds are still grouped up. It might be some rough hunting for the first week or so but I think I am up to the challenge. Good luck team members.

Well MO season finally opens in the morning. I spent the evening reading bedtime stories to 4 big toms on a place that I have leased. Going to get up early and slip in to get set up well before daylight.

RE: team 19 check in
Well i was out with my bro last weekend and we did not score.
We had a tom roosted about 75 yards away and he just flew down the wrong way and the hens did not like our decoys much!
There was not to much response to the calls yet so my weeked of May 7th or so is looking good!!!
Lots of big birds on the properties!

RE: team 19 check in
Hey guys I scored this morning in MO. I had to crop the picture so it would fit but I will post a different one later. The bird I killed this morning will beat my osceola and rio that I registered last month. The bird I killed this morning was 21 lbs, 10 1/4" beard, and had 1 1/8" spurs. I still have 1 tag left for MO and can't use it until Monday. Good luck everyone.
