The morning report
11 yr old, his dad & myself in the "turkey silo"
1000 ~gobbles on the roost by multiple birds
7 am called a strutting longbeard to 20 yds...
little too much excitement and the shot was high....
somber for 5 minutes
Toms still lighting it up in the distance
7:30 henny penny waltzes in yelping and whining to 5 yards
7:45 nuther longbeard responds and shows himself at 75 yds...
more cautious than the first, takes his time (15 min) closing to 25 yards with the help of the "tantilizer call".
11 year old lowers the boom and a real whopper
20+#, 1 1/4" sharp limbhanger spurs, 10 1/2" beard
High 5's and hugs
What a morning.
Photos on dads camera. I'll post later or when I return form the Clearwater country late nxt week.
