RE: Team 3 "Grave Diggers"
Hey Hoytteen that camo barrel is nothing more than "NO-Mar" tape from Bass Pro. The barrels on that gun are really shiny. This took care of that problem. The tape looks almost as good in person as it does on camera. Quite a bit like me in that respect! [8D]It peels off and you can't tell it was ever there. One thing though, the instructions say peel it off right away if it gets saturated. I don't know what would happen if I hunted in a rainstorm and I don't intend to find out.

Nice job! Calling in your first on your own is the best feeling on earth... who cares about the size / score!
Welcome Remington if you are one of our altnerates.
Saw the same group of birds I've been seeing Friday afternoon. We had our annual crowhunt Sat. and were in across the road and listened to hill behind my father's light up while setting up the crow decoys. It got pretty quiet w/ all of our shooting thought!
Our team came in 4th w/ 17 crow.

RE: Team 3 "Grave Diggers"
Hey, guys, it is great to be part of this team. Up here were I live in Northern New York there are tons of birds but they are just starting to get in that spring time mood again. I have been seeing more of them progressively, and heard the first gobbleI have heard yet this spring. They arebunched up witht he hens, but I figure in a week or so they will start to break upand toms will go solo. I have a good spot picked out,one where a food plot will be going so I hope I can get some toms to follow some hens in when thehens decide toeatthe seed that will be cast. I haveconfirmed 7 separate toms and nearly40 turkeys on the farm for this year. I have adandy I spotted withthe binocularswhose beard is dragging on the ground and he isnealry about to trip on it. Usually the frost makes the beards break off but not this one. He must weigh near 22 pounds and have inch spurs. I beleiev this is the bird I had called in last year until some coyotes spoiled my fun. well, if I get a crack at hime come opening day May 1st he will be up here for you all to see.
