Title: Tax Day gobbler
Post by: TRKYHTR on April 16, 2013, 12:51:25 AM
Had another great hunt today. Went with my buddy John Zeiter. This place is loaded with turkeys. We heard many gobblers on the roost but the video wasn't very good from the roost. My decoy took a beating but it was worth it and nothing I can't fix. Here is a couple pics.

Nice bird, you've been in on an awful lot of turkey killing this year for sure. I'm starting to think birds are just giving up and falling dead straight out of the tree when they see you coming!

I just figured it out the other day. I've only hunted 1 day when something didn't die and a turkey should have died that day but my soon to be SIL wasn't ready to kill him. It's been a very good year for me, not to good for the turkeys.
