Shot an Osceola this morning before work. I probable had not been sitting more than 15 minutes when I shot him. I heard a gobble to my left an knew it was close. I did a couple of tree-yelps on the edge of my slate call and he came right to me. Beard 10.5 inches and the spurs were 1.25 inches. Did not weight him, but he had a good heft to him. It was a great way to start the morning; one more to go in Florida. I am headed to Tennessee next week.

And welcome to Tennessee. I'm biased (I live here) but I think it's the best state there is ;D
Congrats! I'm originally from Fl. and miss hunting those birds. I now live in Tn., and the turkey hunting is great. What part are you headed too?
