The end of the New Mexico turkey season came way too fast, so my hunting buddy and I went to Kansas for our first out of state trip this weekend to hunt Rios and despite the high winds and ridiculous heat we had a blast.  The Rios were fired up and gobbling up a storm. I killed this strutting tom the first morning.  20 lbs, 8 oz;  1" spurs; and a 9 " beard, so I'm figuring a three year old. We've both only been at this for three years, but having a great time.



I called him in with my John Dangerfield trumpet.

Great job.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.
