 good day in turkey woods This morning me and my boss headed out for a hunt before work. We set up on a gobbler that's coming in but taking his time. While working this bird we hear other gobblers in the distance. Then 2 birds sounded off behind us so we scooted around our trees to be ready. wasn't long til here they came. Willard shoots the first one and I started doing fighting purr to try to keep second one around. He gobbled a few times and then came right to me! As we standing there talking about what just happen the original bird let a gobble out and was very close. We took off out of there hoping he wouldn't see us but to late! Both we about the same size 17 lbs 7/8 spurs and one had 10 in beard the other 9.5 beard! Doug

Re: good day in turkey woods Congratulations to you and Willard
On a really fine morning. Sometimes it just all comes together. Although it seems to come together for you about all the time. Great job Mr Doug
