Title: Va bird down
Post by: VAHUNTER on April 16, 2012, 07:55:42 AM

what a exciting hunt!!! got setup well before light on a hard gobbling bird.
as day was breaking a gave him a few light clucks just to let him know i was there.even though he did not respond i knew he heard me.
10min. later i gave him a few lite yelps on my Perfection Trifecta and he really fired up. that was the last call i made. i heard him fly down and when his feet hit the ground he double gobbled. in no time at all he was strutting at 30yds straight in front of me. the rest is history.

10 1/4" beard
1 1/4" spurs
Thank you Lord!!
