  1. Good eye. He is tiny. He wouldn't last long out I'm driveway with birds around
  2. Congrats. Great story and real nice turkey.
  3. Prob my best day turkey hunting ever without getting one. Set up in spot I had planned. Had a lone hen come out and walk around in front of me for 35 minutes then she went into the woods. 1/2 hour later one comes out on my left in brush at 10 yards to my left. Then I see movement to my right and there is another hen at 10 yards on that side. They go out and wander around field for a 1/2 hour then up over the top of field. Heard a couple of close shots figure Tom's must be in other areas. About to think about leaving and another hen comes out .. and I hear a gobble a ways in the woods. Hen goes up to top of field and gone then a big Godzilla gobbler comes out about 250 yards up field. He's tailing a hen . Gobbling and fanning and putting on a show. I try to piss off the hen and bring her down but no luck. They go across field and I can't see them. So figured I better wait a little while so I don't spooky them. About 20 min and out steps another gobbler and a Jake. Smaller Tom maybe a 6" beard. I Yelp at them and they keep milling around. They come out farther in the field and I Yelp and they look and see my dekes. So they start coming a little. Wind blows and dekes move and that's it they are committed, here they come. Gobbler keeps stopping and fanning and gobbles. Jake just keeps looking. They get to about 40 and hang up and heads start bobbing a little and they start to move left and away. Figure this is my only shot. Swing and a miss. Gobbler and Jake off and running. Paced it off and it was more like 49 yards. Def farther than I have shot. But I have taken gobblers out to 30 and have patterned shot out to 35. So 40 is my tops but it was a little farther. Anyway great day of turkey hunting. I saw 7 turkeys - 2 were Tom's, one Jake and a then hens. Awesome. Gonna try tomorrow but going to setup at top of field for the big boy as they all seem to head that way.
  4. The hen took him over the ridge and gone. Then another smaller Tom came out with a Jake. Got them to commit. Swing and a miss though. They held up at what I thought was 40. Paced it off and it was more like 49. Still running awesome day though. Turkeys everywhere.
  5. Just had 2 hens out . Came out on each side of me at ten yards. Been walking all over field. Not a Tom dick or harry to be seen.
  6. Hope there is some Tom's left. 2 shots west of me at 6. 2 shots south of me at 6:40. Had a lone hen out walking back and forth in the field for 35 min but no Tom. She came within 10 yards of me once. But went back in the woods now
  7. Congrats Dan! Sounds like a good hunt. Looking forward to seeing Moog hero pics tomorrow
  8. goal for tomorrow - early am hunt , shoot a turkey in the face and enjoy a good breakfast then a nap. Rinse and repeat for Sunday !
  9. i feel like this waiting for everyone to lite up this thread! good luck folks and congrats to ones already tagged. Saw lots of birds out on way to work. And one poor guy hunting and birds fanned out across the road from him.
  10. sorry to hear about losing the property. But you get to take those memories with you. Good luck
  11. Turkey hunting I am lucky to make it til 8:30 am before I am out if no action. Cup of coffee, good breakfast and a nap after gets me right again.
  12. Good luck all tomorrow. Bailing on tomorrow cause well I don't want to be bailing... Sat and sun morn it's on though.
  13. Got to watch them a bunch this last deer season. Cool animals. Had them walk right under my stand and with 15 yards of me on the ground. The rabbit population was certainly noticeably down. I am guessing cause of fishers
