Great KY trip...

[WNY Bowhunter]

Well, I'll start off by saying I was the only person out of six that didn't kill a bird...but, I did call a few gobblers into gun range and had a blast doing it. The weather was a lot better than last year and the amount of gobbling was unbelievable but the birds were henned up and the terrain made it tough to get them in. There were a ton of jakes too so next year should be awesome!!!

Called this one in for my dad on day 2...

The following day I called in a longbeard for my wife and she ended up missing due to a poor setup on my part. The following day I arrived back in camp around 11:00 all beat down and tired after a four hour stand off with a gobbler (should have killed him) to find seven jakes in the field out back. We quickly got around on them and coaxed them into range and she popped one after he seperated from the others. Not a longbeard, but a fun hunt none the less.

My buddies birds...

Few sheds we picked up...

Y'all done GOOD !!

And as I have said before, your lovely bride sure is PURTY !!

Also, it is cool seeing the tobacco barn.. There was one on the property I used to hunt in KY.

Not all that many years ago, we had lots of them here in Steuben County, but most of them are gone now.

Nice. I hear KY is a great whitetail state and opportunities to get a WT in velvet in early season

Lots of tobacco barns. Tobacco ( for cigars, mostly) was a big cash crop around here in the early 1900s. Or so I am told... Even I wasn't around back in those days .

You'd have to ask Doc or Fasteddie about that....<< GRIN>>....
