After an extremely hard morning hunt , we managed this big boy . Got half way in to where I wanted to setup this morning and the birds started sounding off , we dropped our dekes and got settled in , with 5 different gobblers within 100 yards we figured for sure it was a done deal , at 605 am the birds flew down from the roost and started working out way , a hen came in first to check out the spread , with the toms not far behind gobbling there heads off , after some light calling and the toms cutting me off I figured for sure it was a done deal , was I ever wrong , two hens pulled 4 toms from 60 yards in the bush to about 200 within minutes and that was all , We decided around 8 to try anther spot , walking in ad bang there's a bird standing in the pines all by himself, got setup gave 3 clucks and a kee kee and he come running , 7 yard shot . 23 pounds 11 inch beard 1 1/14 spurs . He was a monster

I hope you already got one tied to a tree for me for in the morning!!! I just came down the stairs with my full camo and gillie suit on and the wife almost peed her pants laughing. She figures that even if I can't hit them with the gun, they will die of laughter when they see my getup!!! I just don't get NO RESPECT around here!!!! Kyle.... I got to bring home a turkey.... even if it is just a goose PAINTED to LOOK like a turkey!!!!! Oh ya.... and if it has a Butter Ball pop up temperature gizmo stuck in the breast, the jig will be up. She knows what those things are!
