Starting to turn a little

A.J.'s bird classic right off the roost gobbled hard.. had him dead by 6:20 .. slammed him with a .410 and Apex 9.5 at about 35 yds. I also had another Miss at a good bird Sunday before I killed this one.. Showed one a fan and he ran in full steam.. I should have shot him at around 30 yds.. but had some brush.. tried to wait for him to clear it and he smelled a rat at about 15 yds putted and went to take off.. as soon as I touched the trigger he lifted and I clean missed under him. The bird I shot ended up being a Jake.. came through a tall Wheat field to us with another Gobbler and had two hens in the Field too.. never could see for sure what they were.. big white heads so I killed one.. No video of either hunt.. my Microphone messed up on me on Saturday.. and was afraid to move on Sunday.. _________________ RB Take me Home Country Roads.

Glad I finally got one with the .410, and glad you got the va monkey off your back. Now get one in WV! _________________ "Hunting is fun"-Jim Shockey
