Default .nieghbor gets his first...please read.

..Well after 26 years,I called a (big gobbler)in for my nieghbor and young friend,his first
tom turkey,he has hunted two years this was his second,boy what a thrill for me and him
first we went to where he had heard birds we did not hear nothing,so i said come with me
i know just where a big gobbler is,so here we go to some big timber that is left around these
parts to a grassy nole,i let out some loud yelps and sure enough he was there so i set him
30 yards back from the end of the point,and i backed back about 30 yards and let some
fired up hen talk with a mouth call,it was a great fealing to coach him threw it all that
big tom,came in quick and he came just where i said he would,20 yards in front of him
struting and yes he wanted to shoot but i said wait till i raise his head and i did and
let that big tom have a load of 6# shot right in the head,it was the perfect hunt
i praised GOD and he thanked me,and here is how big he was 22LB 11inch beard
1 inch spurs,man this young hunter was happy and we took pictures of him and
me and his family of that big turkey i say young he is in his late 20,sbut thank
the lord for something he will never forget,so praise the lord for that hunt
my best ever.................

Congrats Totoe on a job well done, I would just about as soon to call one in for somebody especially when its there first gobbler as I would kill one myself.

I answered your e-mail but it got sent back to me again, said it was undeliverable.

That Tom must have been deaf,[] the boy was 30 yards away from you, and the turkey was only 20 yards from him when you told him not to shoot till he raised his head?

Just ribb' in ya, I just wanted to let you know I really read the story. Thanks for the story, everyone should remember their first hunts, thats what makes " US" go back to the woods year after year. Congrats on the bird!!!!!!!!!!!
