Post WHO ARE YOU?
We haven't done this for a while, and I see that there are a lot of new members on the board these days. How about everyone posting a note that says who we are, what you do, how long Turkey Hunting, etc. Just nice to to get a feel for who's out there. I'll start it off. Maybe one of the boss gobblers can make it a sticky for us.

I am Ron Dezern and I live in Hampton, VA.
I have three grown children 43, 41, & 39, and 7 grand children 25, 23,,17, 10, 9 ,8, 8 and 1.
I am a retired Telephone Technician.
I have been Turkey hunting for a twentyish years, and with Freddy's help took my first bird Spring 2004.
My bird was a healthy one weighing 21 1/2 lbs, 9 3/4" beard, 1 1/4" and 1 3/8" Spurs.

Thought I should update this. Get things a little more current. :smt006

My name is Scott and I'm in the process of moving to Christiansburg from Roanoke county. I have been working in the law enforcement profession since leaving the Navy in 97 after 8 years of service.

I have been hunting since I was a kid, but didn't really catch the turkey bug until 10 years ago. I killed my first turkey in 95 while home on leave.
