Proud pop
 

I have a proud dad moment from the weekend. I took my son (DTC Jr who is on Team 2) to Florida over the weekend to hunt with Billy Henderson and Deep South Outfitters. He took us to a spot and within a few minutes the birds were gobbling. I saw 2 hens fly off the roost and start working our direction. The gobblers hit the ground and I could hear them gobbling and coming closer. 10 minutes might have passed and I heard a bird spitting and drumming, moments later we could hear them fighting. I hear my
son say "dad, here the come!" followed by "oh, they are all jakes............wait, wait, here comes a long beard!" The gobbler and jakes pushed the hens around and finally the long beard cleared the jakes and KABOOM! My 13 year old had just completed his grand slam. We were both relieved and might have shed a tear or 2. He had missed down there 4 years ago and that miss has haunted him ever since.

Congratulations to both of you. Priceless memories shared that will never be forgotten.

Nice full fan and he looks like he has some weight on him too---Congrats to your boy!

Great job. Way to get team 2 started.

Good job! Getting a Slam...quite an achievement.

My congrats! :happy0001: What did he shoot him with?

Great job, especially on a slam that young.

Congrats to him and you both! That is awesome!

He shoots a Remington 870 20 gauge.

He should have finished it when he was 9 but missed on that trip.
It's been a lot of fun traveling and turkey hunting with him.
