Deerthug Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Finally made it back up to the house for another round with the thunder chickens. This time we plan on using the hen decoys to bring them in closer. Hopefully we will put 2 down between us by Sunday morning.

Lawdwaz Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 It ain't about the bird but you already know that. Have a great time and enjoy your boys company. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deerthug Posted May 8, 2015 Author Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) It absolutely is about the time I spend with him. As far as I'm concerned, if I can make it happen that he connects then, well that's just the gravy. My plan is to let him tag out if possible. I told him that if only one bird comes in each morning they are both his. If two come in together at one time, we will try to take one each. He's already asking about deerhunting this fall.....I would say he is hooked. Edited May 8, 2015 by Deerthug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deerthug Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 Back in our blind with my hunting partner for life since 4:45 am. Slight breeze about 59 deg. Birds are chirping. Bring it on!! Sent with Tapatalk on my Samsung Galaxy 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maytom Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Hope you hear a gobble, or better yet see one!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerthug Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) We heard a few early on and talked with them for a while but then they clammed up as it got too windy. Did not see any today and only one shot from the neighboring property. Son wanted to come in at 9 so we did. It was discouraging not seeing anything but the time spent with him was more enjoyable than the hunt itself.
