I have been blessed beyond belief in the turkey woods this year. It is the best season I've ever had. I have been in the woods 6 times and killed three of the best birds I've ever killed, and had opportunity to kill on two of the other three hunts.

I chased a bird from 6:20-8:00 am this morning, and although I think I could have killed him with some more patience he ended up crossing a property line and walking away gobbling his head off. Once he made that move I went after another bird I had been listening to all morning. I set up about 100 yards from the bird and within 12 minutes he was dead.

17.5 lbs, 10.5" thick beard, 1" and 1 3/16" spurs. To top it all off he is my birthday bird!!

You are thoe ONLY person I know that hunts Turkeys with ear plugs. It is one of the most bizzare thing I have ever heard of in the turkey woods.

Do you want to hear him gobble, or do you want to kill him.
