I was fortunate to have an ABSOLUTE TEXTBOOK hunt this morning.
Birds were flat out hammering on the roost just outside the field we were set up on. Soon a hen got real vocal so I just mimicked every call she made with my Doan's pill can. Around 6:45 the gobbler and 5 hens sailed right into the field. The gobbler saw the Jake deke and came right to it and started flogging it. At 6:50 he was flopping.
21.75 lbs, 9'' beard, longest spur was 1 3/16''.
God is good!

I'll try to post pics but not exactly sure how

The Great One has struck again. Way to go Barry. An inspiration to all of us.

Maybe some of the rest of the VA hunters can finally post Their pictures and stories now.

wonderful. Nice bird for sure and love it when a plan comes together.

PS. I played the game on Monday. Had a LB and Jake who came up the hill with hens. Got him within 30 yards but a knoll between him and me prevented me from getting a shot. He gobbled at everything, but he wasn't about to leave those hens. Had a few things pop up that required attention and hope to get out tomorrow.
