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 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!

Great season Barry,Man that don't sound like you had any handicap to me and what's this next year thing.The cookout is only a couple weeks away. We need to get together and tell some lies on somebody."Keep Looking Up"

Definitely looking forward to the cookout!

DO TURKEY HUNTERS REALLY TELL LIES???
I prefer "Altering the truth."

See ya in 2 weeks,
