I was blessed with a successful hunt just now. Killed about 1/4 mile away from my office on public. Saw him yesterday morning all alone. Set up a blind and decoys for him around 930am this morning and as soon as i started calling he started gobbling his head off. Then he got quiet and appeared at 30 yards shortly after and was done.

Congrats!

I had a huge bird that I probably mis-ranged. Didn’t fold him. :twisted:

Down goes Frazier!!

Had quite a few birds around, but this guy came into some light rhythmic clucks from about 200 yards out.

Finally one that read the script and I didn't mess up. :lol:
