I filled my remaining three tags this weekend! I went out to my lease on Friday afternoon and managed to spot and stalk a gobbler that evening. He weighed a little over 20 lbs with a 10 inch beard and 1.25 inch spurs.

The following morning was a swing and a miss for me. I managed to get the birds fired up, but couldn' t get any in close enough. That evening I went back out, set up, and called for a few minutes. Almost immediately a hen came out of the brush and started looking for the other hen that had moved in on her territory. I stopped calling so she wouldn' t bust me and she wandered back into the brush and started yelping. Figuring that she was much better at this turkey calling business than I was, I just sat back and let her do all the calling for me. After about 10 minutes three gobblers came in silently. They were bunched together looking for the hen, but none of them were strutting. They walked a few yards and the hen in the brush clucked; one of the gobblers left the other two and went into the brush towards her. The other two started walking towards me single file. I aimed at the lead bird' s head and fired; both of them dropped in their tracks! The big bird weighed 22 lbs with a 10.5" beard and 1" spurs; the smaller weighed 16lbs with a 5" beard and barely any spurs.

What a season! Now I only have four months to wait until dove season starts

Congratulations on the good season, Hook!

Congrats to ya. wish i could get more than one bird, my season was done 6AM opening morning. but it was very fun for the 10 min i was out for just wish i could have hunted longer o well, i got to call for my dad and that was just as fun as being able to shoot one myself, i just enjoy being out in the woods calling in birds.

congrats on an awesome season....[:-]

We' ve got it good here in Texas. The county where my hunting lease is located, Val Verde, has a 4 bird limit.
I went to high school in Oklahoma and at that time they had a 1 bird limit. I always had mixed feelings when I got a bird because I knew the season I had been preparing for since deer season ended in mid November was over.

Congratulations!

I have never tried stuffing two turkeys in a game bag. I hope you weren' t far from the truck.

Sometimes it' s over faster than you know it!! Glad to hear that you limited out!!
My turn finally starts tomorow in NY, wish me some luck!!

congrats
I shot my first bird this last week. He had a 10 inch beard, 1 1/4 spurs at 21#.

I was only about a mile from the truck, but my lease is in the Southwest Texas brush country so I had to fight cacti and mesquite all the way back. I was sure glad I finally broke down and bought a turkey vest this year.

Good Luck Maytom!! Go get ' em!!
