Opening day wasn"t quite the turkey shoot I had dreamed about for months, but my two buddies and I went 1 for 3. Jake (shakeyjake)kept his killin streak alive for the third spring with a nice two yr old. Killed him at 9:15, after working two birds since fly down. A strutter and a lookout with one hen all morning. Finally after moving on them three times, the hen finally slipped away and left those two old boys as lonesome as a Maytag repair man. Bird went 21# with a 9 7/8" beard and the standard 3/4" two yr old spurs. Good, thick beard though. I struck out at the roost and couldn't raise a gobble all morning. My other buddy heard a few and saw some hens, no gobblers with them. We'll be back after them on thursday. Best luck to everyone.







That ol' tom's already dead. He just don't know it yet .... The hard part is convincing him.

Are you REALLY working that gobbler, or is HE working YOU?

Congrats! Beautiful gobbler!
If I had a dollar for every gobbler I thought I fooled I'd be well off!

Congrats on the nice turkey bird. Neat how you got him to stand sideways, like that...
May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
