Title: Ohio Youth season opener success!!!
Post by: DeWayne Knight on April 21, 2012, 11:26:38 AM
Had my little buddy Jaxon out this morning for the youth opener, and for his first ever turkey hunt.  His dad Mike came along to keep Jaxon awake...

Had one bird eyeballing our set up from about 80 yards when this big fella came in from the other direction.  After he put on a show thrashing the tar out of my strutter decoy, Jaxon laid him out stone cold with his little 20 ga.

22.4 lbs.  10" beard  1.5" spurs
