I ended up missing one at 8 yds.. Luke got his within the first hour of the season it was a Double Beard.. here is some video TN Trip Highlights https://youtu.be/_KgxPJgG_7MLuke's Video https://youtu.be/gxjv74JMnSU Here are some pictures..

Re: TN Turkeys to start it off
Congratulations! That is awesome. Hope you do well in both Virginia and West Virginia! Myself - I'm not thrilled WV went to an earlier start, it was nice being able to hunt WV a couple weeks after VA.

Yea.. me too man.. starts way too early in the Mountains now.. they should split the season and have the Ohio River valley start early and the eastern part of the state in the Mountains start the 3rd week in April and stay in a week later..
