My Brother's First Gobbler!! Cool Hunt..
My brother couldn't get Opening Day off work so we decided to get after it pretty good this weekend after I shot my first Turkey on friday morning. There were tons of Gobbles coming from the roost so we k new we were in the game early. The gobbles moved off to the neighbouring cut bean field but around 7am I saw a bird come over the stone fence about 150 yards away... A tom, 2 jakes, and a hen came trotting into the decoy se and the Tom popped into full strut and came after our walking Tom decoy.. My brother hammered him right around 10 yards... Awesome morning to be out!
