Finally on the board
Fooled with a gobbler from flydown until 11:00 today in Dinwiddie. I was within 70 yards of the gobbler with three hens for over three hours. Finally got him to break and come in with a jake yelp at 11:00. Very nice older turkey, 20.25 pounds, spurs curved and 1 3/8 and 1 7/16, 10 1/2 inch beard. One of the best hunts I have ever had. I feel like a great weight has been lifted. If I was not such a dinosaur I would post pictures.

Re: Finally on the board
Those hour long hunts hanging and moving with the birds are really rewarding. That’s a great bird too

Re: Finally on the board
Great hunt, usually when I fool with one that long he doesn't get a ride in my truck. I hear you about the weight being lifted.
