great job Bobcat. I'm glad that at least someone on our team is gettin the gobblers . I know that I sure can't. I got a tom HOT on tuesday (my B-day) and he started to run toward me. I mean he was cutting loose about every three steps! He was really fired up. I heard something walkin to my left and I looked at it. There stood the biggest coyote I ever have seen. The Gobbler took of flyin. I got mad and I started squeaking like a turkey. The dog came closer and I turned them #4 hevi shots loose and rolled him 3 or 4 times. He made me MAD. gtg. BB
