Hello everyone

Post by pedro »

New to the site and I just found this area. I love hunting and turkey hunting is at the top my list. here on the wisconsin/lllinos border chasing long-beards keeps me in field often. It is nice to find a site with good people who share common obsessions. I look forward to learning from everyone.

Season started off in NW Illinois on public land with my father. He is new to turkey hunting and has yet to get one. He is disabled so i have tried to adjust my tactics. We had close encounters on all three hunts. I decoyed a two year old in north central Illinois at 40 yards mid season, private land. finished my season by getting Inbetween a group of hens and toms. I was able to call up a satellite two year old. The pine rows were open and he broke strut after eying me by a tree, so I put the dot on his head let the big 12 bark, and at 57 paces lay my second trophy of the year. This was taken on public land near Wisconsin dells.

Oops... Did I say 57? Maybe I was taking short strides. :)
