Anybody turkey hunting this fall

Another thing about fall gobblers that most don't realize is this. They have a complete new set of feathers after the brutal spring mating season. Over the summer, they molt out the old feathers and grow back a complete new set before the coming winter. My taxidermist always told me if you want a flying gobbler mount, try to get a fall gobbler. It won't have any broken wing tips or missing breast feathers. Just a tip!!!

Uncle Nicky....What kind of dog do you have? I had a mix setter/pointer that I hunted with for about 2 years (epilepsy so bad we had to do the unthinkable. at about 4 yrs. old). It was a lot of work training him but it was special when he finally got us a couple of birds. Hunting with dogs is extra special.
