| Post subject: | my season in review |
And what a season it was, one of my BEST EVER! Here's a quick summary. I went on 12 hunts on 8 different farms. I hunted for a total of 49 1/2 hours. I heard 41 gobblers, 32 of which were different birds. I saw 14 Longbeards...16 Jakes...20 Hens. I called in 10 Longbeards and 10 Jakes. I got to see the "Pretty Boy" deke do his thing on 2 occasions. 2 of the hunts were mid morning, 9:00-11:30 and 8:30-1:00. On only one hunt did I not hear a bird gobble - one of the mid morning hunts. I also hunted in the worst weather that I ever have on our Wheelin' Sportsmen hunt I took my crossbow twice and passed on a Jake. There were 5 shots taken...4 kills - all Longbeards... 1 MISS. The BEST HUNT was the last. I sat with my friend Tommy and called in 5 Longbeards and 4 Jakes. He missed one Longbeard at 9:45, then he took his only bird of the season at 12:52 I want to thank Freddy and the rest of you for letting me be a part of your season, as you were a big part of mine as well. I look forward to next year so we can do it all again!!! barry |

Barry those are impressive numbers, one number in particular, 16 jakes I hope i just missed them because i only actually had my eye on 3 all year and 2 of those were in georgia. Congrats on a great season. Sounds like next year will be a good one for you too! |
