First Day Success!
Well, even a blind squirrel finds a nut. It was really windy here this morning in Virginia. I didn't hear a gobble where I usually do. I started to move around a little and no dice.....I decided I would just go set up at one spot and sit for an hour and see what happens. I got settled in and it wasn't five minutes and he hammered. I was using my new aluminum pot call and striker I got from RaspyD along with a new mouth call from him. I had my AvianX hen decoy and was set. He came in on a string. I took him at 38-40 yards. Rangefinder one time said 38 then 40...oh well. This is the first bird I killed with the Longbeards. They dropped him in his tracks. Yes he flopped, but who cares, he rode home in my truck. I used my 870 SM 3.5" #6's.
Thanks for looking,
Kevin

May I assume you're not here to inquire about the alcohol or the tobacco?
